THEATRE SHOWS

Tickets can be printed OR shown on your phone or other device.  The QR code on the tickets should be clearly visible for scanning.

Alternatively, you can ask the CHANCE2DANCE box office to print your tickets for you on arrival at the venue on show day.  You will need to provide some details for us to retrieve your booking.

THEME PARK SHOWS

All theme park passes and wristbands will be sent to the dance school one week prior to the event.  Wristbands must be worn for the CHANCE2DANCE show and must be shown to gain entry to the performance area.  You therefore do not need to present a ticket on arrival.

Every performer is responsible for selling a minimum of 2 tickets for a CHANCE2DANCE event at Birmingham Hippodrome or Blackpool Opera House.  This is set out in all literature for the event and in the terms and conditions when you complete the online registration process. This should also be explained by the dance school when asking you to sign up for the event.

The general public do not come to watch these types of shows; it is only family, friends and supporters of the performers taking part.  We only have one day to re-coup the huge cost of hiring and putting on an event at a prestigious theatre such as Birmingham Hippodrome or Blackpool Opera House and so this is why minimum ticket sales must be put in place.

The minimum ticket requirement also means that all young performers have equal support in the audience, creating a fantastic atmosphere for them to perform in.

We can only continue to create these opportunities for young performers to dance on the best stages in the country with the continued support of dance schools and their families and friends, so we thank you for your support.
