Before you come

Do I need to register?
No registration is needed. All twelve workshops are free and drop-in — just arrive a few minutes before the start time and join in.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. Every workshop is completely free, as part of Shoonya's programme at the Gentse Feesten 2026.
What level do I need?
All levels are welcome, including complete beginners. Each workshop is a taster designed so anyone can join and dance along.
Where exactly do they take place?
In and around Baudelopark in Ghent — on the Het Bal stage, at the Salsabar, and in the park itself. The exact stage is listed next to each workshop in the line-up.
Do I need a dance partner?
No. Come alone or with friends — for partner styles like Kizomba and Lindy Hop, dancers rotate so everyone can take part.
Can I come to just one workshop?
Yes. Drop in to any single workshop that fits your schedule, or come to as many as you like across the festival.
