About The Show

The UDMA Dance Resource & Costume Show is the country’s biggest vendor gathering just for dance teachers and studio owners! It’s all under one roof— costumes, competitions, conventions, video and teaching tools, tours, flooring, fundraisers, magazines and many other organizations all showing their newest products and services to help teachers and studios owners with the business of dance.

Why should YOU attend?

The Dance Resource & Costume Show is the only show of its kind, where all the activity centers around one thing—what you need to shop for to make your business and performances successful. It's a room full of experts in their fields, creative and innovative business people and designers, with new and tried-and-true products for your business, for your show, for your dance world. And with five locations all over the country, UDMA brings it all to your backyard!
At the Dance Resource & Costume Show, you’re in complete control. Not only can you review entire costume and dancewear lines in person and at your own pace, but you can also look at the real colors, feel the actual fabrics and witness the costumes come to life as you take them off the rack. That sure beats flipping tirelessly through catalogs or clicking through hundreds of webpages! If you have any questions, you can speak with the company representatives directly and get the answers you need right away. Or you can just pick their brain! Talk to the designers and get their expert input on what you have in mind for performance or competition. 

You can also spend the day chatting face-to-face with leaders in a wide range of other dance related fields—competition hosts, shoe manufacturers, flooring specialists, and photographers. They’re all here to help you grow your business and enhance the world of dance, so stop by their booths and get to know the people you work with all year long! If you’d like more in-depth info, attend any of our brand new seminars, all of which are led by experts in their fields.
But perhaps best of all, you’ll have access to some great deals and exclusive show specials. Not to mention all the prizes and giveaways!

Yeah, But How Much Does It Cost?

You’re probably wondering how much it’s going to cost you… absolutely nothing! That’s right, the UDMA Dance Resource & Costume Show is free.
And we know how valuable your time is, so feel free to stay as long as you’d like or come and go as you please. Drive in and drive out all in one day, or stay overnight with discounted hotel rates. If you’re planning to attend the New Jersey show, you can look forward to TWO full days of exhibits!

Come Early and Get a Sneak Preview

If you want an ultra sneak preview at all the vendor booths, stop by the evening before the trade show begins for the all-new Teacher Appreciation Party (TAP). Stroll through the aisles with a glass of wine or soft drink, peruse costume catalogs, network with colleagues and make appointments for the next day. Figure out your winning game plan, and come back on Sunday ready for action. This is YOUR weekend!
