One day. One city. Tons of free dance workshops.

Sponsorship Opportunities

Philadelphia Dance Day is a nonprofit festival featuring free workshops, live performances and an evening showcase. The goal is to unite the community in celebrating dance as a powerful platform for creative expression and physical activity.

All dance enthusiasts – regardless of experience or even coordination – are invited to take part in the fun on July 26, 2025. There will be something for everyone, from belly dance to hip-hop for all ages. Daytime workshops will be held at the Philly Dance Fitness studio (1923 Chestnut St). The festival culminates with a performance showcase at Plays & Players Theater featuring routines from volunteer instructors, local dance companies and student groups.

Philly Dance Fitness, an independent studio based in Center City, first organized this event in 2010 to celebrate National Dance Day, an initiative spurred by the creators of the Fox reality show, “So You Think You Can Dance.” With publicity from Fox and other media outlets, our grassroots efforts brought more than 500 people together at some past events. To see video clips from past Dance Days and read more about this year’s schedule, visit philadelphiadanceday.com.

While we’re lucky to have volunteers to run the event, we’re seeking sponsors to help address production costs. We hope you will consider the following range of promotional opportunities that will put your business in front of hundreds of Dance Day attendees, as well as thousands more who will visit the event website looking for dance and fitness opportunities around the region.
