To help you plan your personal "zouk world tour" all the links and dates have once again been checked & updated, and all the events that appear for the first time in 2014 are marked as NEW. Also a couple new type of events have been included in the list - these are events that are designed to be "only" big international zouk parties with no or very limited amount of workshops. On the list these are marked with PARTY. My blog posts of the events can be also seen along the list! Any questions? Dig in!!

In addition to these there are an ever increasing amount of smaller, local zouk weekends with international visiting artists, check with your local dance schools! In the list above you'll find the dates of the 2014 events and for unconfirmed events (by Mar 31 2014) that have not been cancelled I have added the dates of the respective 2013 event in brackets. New events may and will appear, please follow the up-to-date calendar below or Dance the World Facebook page. Also note that even confirmed festivals may be cancelled or times altered at any point so check the latest info with the respective event's organisers! If you know of a great zouk event that is not on the list please add a comment on this blog posting!
