Ballet Boys Project Holiday Program

We are thrilled to extend Queensland Ballet’s Ballet Boys Project even further in 2025 by offering a unique and fully subsidised Holiday Program for male dancers aged 7 to 15 years.


The Ballet Boys Project’s mission is to encourage and nurture male participation in our artform and we are proud to be building a community for boys to connect and dance with others who share their passion. 

Our upcoming Ballet Boys Project Holiday Program is an invaluable opportunity for boys to develop their skills in a welcoming and supportive environment across a two-day event which will include classes in ballet, character, contemporary, and repertoire. As well as receiving focussed tuition in male specific technique and artistry, the boys will gain inspiring insight into the professional world of dance while observing Queensland Ballet Company Class and Rehearsals.

Parents and carers will be invited to view their student in classes on the second day of the program, join a tour of the Thomas Dixon Centre, home of Queensland Ballet, and participate in an informal Q&A session with a panel of male dance professionals.

Led by Queensland Ballet and Queensland Ballet Academy’s passionate and expert faculty, this initiative is playing a vital role in shaping the future of ballet by fostering the next generation of male dancers.

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.
