2025 Junior Summer Program

Queensland Ballet Academy – Gate 1, 101 L’Estrange Tce, Kelvin Grove

2025 Junior Summer Program

#About the Event


We are delighted to offer the Junior Summer Program exclusively for younger dancers aged 6 - 13 years.

Over four action-packed days, participants will strengthen their foundational skills in classical ballet, character dance, repertoire, and contemporary dance. They’ll also be mentored by passionate teachers, access world-class facilities, and make new friends in a fun, supportive, and professional studio environment.

This year, the program culminates in an open viewing day, allowing dancers to showcase their new skills to a live audience of their family and friends. This event is free to attend and celebrates the dancers’ growth in confidence, technical skill, and artistry. *

The Junior Summer Program is held at Queensland Ballet Academy’s world-class home in Kelvin Grove, Brisbane. The building houses six world-class dance studios, dancers’ quarters, and health and wellbeing facilities to ensure dancers get the most out of their training. Queensland Ballet Academy staff are also trained and certified in best-practice child safety to ensure participants enjoy a positive school holiday experience.

*Please note we are unable to accommodate viewing of the program classes on any day other than the viewing day.

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and perform. Long before we performed on this land, it played host to the dance expression of our First Peoples. We pay our respects to their Elders — past, present and emerging — and acknowledge the valuable contribution they have made and continue to make to the cultural landscape of this country.
