About this Event

Join us for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in celebration of the 42nd annual Bates Dance Festival. The evening will include remarks from BDF artists and special guests and will conclude with the BDF x CRĀV Battle Finals and Performance.

This year, Bates Dance Festival is proud to celebrate our entire community. We can’t create this festival without all of the incredible artists, students, and audience members who make this possible. Join us to show your patron pride and to celebrate Bates Dance Festival’s world renowned training programs and public performance series.

This is a family-friendly event. You must be 21+ to consume alcohol.

Proceeds from the BDFête go directly towards keeping our programming accessible to all, including our free and pay-what-you can performances.
