Held at the Main Hall, Church of the Ascension, The Avenue, Wembley from 8pm on Monday 21st March 2022.

See our history page for more details.
 
To mark this special year in our history, tonight we are going to delve back in time and look at dances that were devised or published(*) in each decade of our existence. We will start with a brand new dance written just a couple of years ago and stroll back to a traditional dance that was published by the RSCDS in 1935 and still remains one of the most popular dances today.
