For the first time since 2019, Dauphin will host the Zirka Ukrainian Dance Ensemble this weekend.
The event runs on Friday from 9:45 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday.
"Definitely excited to have 19 dance groups from Manitoba and Saskatchewan coming to town this weekend," said Csversko. "It adds up to more than 850 dancers. It's a weekend packed with Ukrainian dancing. The entertainment is going to be incredible."
"To see all of the bright costumes, the high energy, and tempo," continued Csversko. "There's upbeat music. If you have yet to take part in any other Ukrainian dance performances, definitely come and check it out, you will be very impressed."
"We're very grateful to the Dauphin Kings and Parkland Rec Services for accommodating this," continued Csversko. "With the Kings being in the final now, we had to juggle around the schedule, and the three groups came together to make it happen."
"From beginners to advanced groups, dancers of all ages and skill levels," ended Csversko. "It's a great competition to watch."
For this year's event, day passes are $15, and weekend passes are $25. A 50/50 draw will be held, and local vendors will line the upper concourse.
