Highland Dancing Champion of Champions

The Champion of Champions Championship of Australia is Australia’s most prestigious highland dancing event. It brings together Highland Dancers from many parts of the world as it rotates on a biennial basis through the states of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania.


The Australian Board of Highland Dancing Inc has entrusted the successful conduct of the 2010 Championship to the South Queensland Regional Committee of Highland Dancing Inc. The last time this event was staged by our committee (in the year 2000), 682 dancers travelled to Brisbane to  compete in the dancing programme.

History

The Championship was instigated by Mr. Frank Cleves, a long-standing supporter of Highland Dancing in Australia. The first Champion of Champions Championship was conducted in Frank’s home state, South Australia, in 1976. The event has rotated since that time, with 2010 celebrating the 18 Champion of Champions Championship event.
