Each year Dunia presents this two day festival to the public and dance community bringing in leading teachers for workshops, venders, middle eastern food and all day performances by professional and non-professional belly dancers, solos and troupe performances and live musicians.  This was DDF's second year at this location, but the Festival has been an annual event for over 20 years.  It is open to the public and suitable for family viewing.
