DanceNZmade Gold Awards celebrates and embraces the strength, diversity and passion of dance in New Zealand. Since 2009, Good and golden things come in three's • Amazing workshops, a chance to perform and a chance to win! 

In 2026 New Zealand School of Dance & DanceNZmade – have a partnership to celebrate creativity, connection and the joy of dance together.

We’re thrilled to share we have partnered with NZSD - connecting them to our 4,000 plus young dancers across Aotearoa!

NZSD joined us for Gold and will now be with us at Exchange and Interschool events.

The inspiring NZSD team can’t wait to support dancers with teaching, judging, and special training opportunities.

‘Together, we’re creating clearer pathways for young dancers. It’s all about inspiring the next generation and showing them what a future in the arts can look like’.
