Phoenix Rising Dance Festival

MISSION:

With the loss of major community based support systems in the Arizona Bellydance Community, the ladies of Divine Chaos Tribal wanted to bring back the unifying community event of the former Fall Festival of Music & Dance, originally created by Arizona’s MECDA chapter. At the height of the festival, the community stage boasted 10 hours of performances, drum circle and open dance time, workshops showcasing local and international instructors, the best vendors Arizona had to offer, and attendance from every corner of Arizona! 

Phoenix Rising Dance Festival® is to be a community based event with the hopes of providing a local dance festival to promote and showcase Arizona’s amazing talent and to support our local and community musicians, vendors, artists, students, teachers, and performers. The festival will be held at El Zaribah Shriner’s Auditorium, centrally located in Phoenix, Arizona (with loads of parking). The venue has a professional stage, multiple dressing rooms, large capacity auditorium that will allow the festival to all happen in one beautifully large room. You can shop among the vendors, socialize, attend classes and workshops, and support performances throughout the day.
