WEMBLEY PARK ANNOUNCES ‘JUBILEE DANCE PARTY’, AN ALL-DAY FESTIVAL TO CELEBRATE THE PLATINUM JUBILEE

To mark Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, London’s most exciting new neighbourhood, Wembley Park, will be transformed into a huge street party for the Jubilee Dance Party on Saturday 4th June 2022.

Dancers at Wembley Park
With five stages of live acts, DJs and dance leaders, alongside dedicated family zones and plenty of street food options, Wembley Park welcomes everyone wanting to soak up the party atmosphere and share the jubilation, as well as those keen to throw some shapes on the dancefloor.

This free to attend festival, organised and hosted by Wembley Park, will not only celebrate the 70th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II but also honour the cultural diversity of Brent through dance styles from around the world – representing one of the most diverse boroughs in the UK. It will also aim to set two new Guinness World Records for ‘most nationalities taking part in a dance lesson’ and ‘largest street dance class’.

Olympic Steps, Wembley Park
The main stage, which will be the focus of the world record attempts, will be located in front of the new Olympic Steps, the main entrance to iconic Wembley Stadium. Additional stages will be spread across the whole Olympic Way, turning London’s world-renowned walkway into a giant, all-day playground for adults and children.
The stages will hold classes for all ages and abilities and showcase different dance styles throughout the day, each with deep connections with both the UK and the local community. One stage will feature live bands and day-long family shows.

Adorned with decorations and packed with family-friendly activities including face painters, bubbleologists and circus acts, as well as stilt walkers, street dancers, pavement artists, Wembley Park will be London’s most exciting street party for non-dancers and dancers alike.

To complement the music and dance stages alongside the street performers, there will be dedicated, interactive areas with selfie stations and photo booths. A giant photo wall will unveil a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, digitally generated with photos taken by festivalgoers throughout the day.

“We are delighted to be celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee by transforming London’s most exciting new neighbourhood into a street party for the Jubilee Dance Party on 4th June. We invite all ages and abilities to join us for the party and the world record attempts, as well as to enjoy the live music and join in the wide range of artistic and family-friendly activities.”

Josh McNorton, Cultural Director, Wembley Park
Free lessons, taught by professional dancers, will be offered for each dance style followed by a group social dance. Live bands and DJ’s will provide the perfect acoustic backdrop with some of London’s top dance schools and their students also participating in the festivities.
