The Dance Ball has become the absolute highlight of Yiddish Summer Weimar. The 35-member Dance Orchestra, composed of young musicians from all over the world, drives the evening with incredible, joyful energy. Participants and teachers of the Dance Workshop create a swirling vortex that draws everyone onto the dance floor. Short, brilliant musical interludes between sets allow you to catch your breath before plunging back in again. Come join the party and we’ll raise the roof together! This year, we won’t just be dancing to wedding music – we’ll be celebrating an actual wedding! Join us and the young couple as we give them the party of their lives!
