Join us October 8–10, 2026 for three unforgettable days of dancing as we celebrate the excellence of Fred Astaire’s high-caliber instructors and the dedication of students from across the country. Humanity really invented competitive ballroom dancing and decided it needed sequins, adrenaline, and emotional damage all in one weekend. Somehow it works beautifully. ✨Carolina Classic is known as the “Loudest House” — a fun, friendly, high-energy event where every dancer feels supported, celebrated, and inspired from the moment they walk onto the dance floor.
Throughout the weekend, you’ll have the opportunity to showcase your growth and achievements in an atmosphere filled with cheer, applause, and genuine camaraderie. Whether it’s your first competition or your fiftieth, our goal is simple: to make you feel proud, confident, and part of something truly special.
Saturday evening’s elegant festivities will feature a spectacular performance by renowned World-Class dancers Andrei Kozlovsky & Nino Dzneladze, followed by a formal dinner celebration you won’t want to miss. 💃
Come for the dancing.
Stay for the energy.
Leave inspired.
