Sri Lanka Dance Festival 2025

Sri Lanka Dance Festival 2025 – Paraiso SBKZ, the country’s first international dance festival, will be held from Friday, October 31 to Sunday, November 2, at the Mount Lavinia Hotel.

The festival will feature 75 international artists from 15 countries, with a total of 500 dancers representing 12 dance styles.

A special press conference was held recently at the Mount Lavinia Hotel, where SLDF Organising Committee member Gayathrie Soysa said the festival will mark the beginning of a new chapter—positioning Sri Lanka as Asia’s next hub for dance tourism while giving homegrown talent the global stage it deserves.
