About The Show

It’s the place where you will meet the largest gathering of dance vendors under one roof anywhere in the world, and see their most complete product lines and offerings in person.

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 move their studios forward.

Why should YOU attend?

Unlike any other event in the dance industry, our show has the largest number of dance vendors in all in one place. We provide you with the free opportunity to feel, touch, and try the latest products with no distractions from dance classes, competitions, parents or students. See the catalogs come alive—ask models to try on as many styles as you like from all your favorite costume companies!
Plus we’ve got EVERYTHING you need to shop for to make your business and performances successful—including shoes, flooring, lighting, software, accessories, and competition and convention companies. 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 four locations all over the country, UDMA brings it all to your backyard!

• Review entire product lines in person and at your own pace,
• Look at the real colors, feel the actual fabrics, and witness the costumes come to life as you take them off the rack
• Ask models to try garments on so you can see how they look on the dancer, moving
• 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.
• Drive in and drive out all in one day, or stay overnight with discounted hotel rates.
