World Largest Ballet Class

Australia’s Queensland Ballet are attempting to break the Guinness World Record for the world’s largest ballet class. On Sunday, May 22 around 2000 dancers from across Australia will gather with Queensland Ballet dancers on the Kurilpa Bridge in South Brisbane for a 30 minute basic, but fun classical barre class starting promptly at 9:00am. Dancers of all ages and levels are registering to join in and help beat the current record of 1,055 participants set by Staatsoper Hannover in Germany last year. The World’s Largest Ballet Class is a challenge organised by Queensland Ballet as part of its commitment to putting Brisbane on the international dance map. After the devastating floods that ravished the city in recent months, we hope that the event is a triumph for the city of Brisbane and the state of Queensland.
