COMPETITION DETAIL

We’ve been having an incredible experience with Celebrity. Everything has been exceptionally well organized, from the seamless check-in process to the thoughtful logistics throughout the event. The venue is excellent, and the staff and instructors are kind, professional, and truly amazing. After our first Celebrity regional competition two years ago, our studio staff, dancers, and parents all voted to return, and this year we added our first Celebrity Convention. It solidified our expectations that Celebrity’s organization is consistently wonderful, and we are absolutely coming back next year. Thank you to the entire Celebrity team! Your values align beautifully with our studio’s, and we’re all looking forward to this year’s regionals.

We absolutely love Celebrity Dance!!! We have been attending the conventions and regional competitions for a few years and Celebrity is always our favorite. The events are organized, well run, with amazing teachers and staff, and strive to celebrate every dancer and the love of dance. My daughter Caroline had the honor of being on Junior Crew at Nationals at Sea this past summer and it was an absolutely incredible experience. She met so many wonderful new friends, she learned so much and came away feeling so loved and inspired. Celebrity creates a culture of positivity, kindness, and respect. And it does this while providing top-notch instruction, a high quality and challenging competition, and fun activities for all. We felt like celebrities from the minute we arrived and we created dance memories and friendships that will last a lifetime. We cannot wait for our next Celebrity event.

Just wanted to say that Celebrity Convention in Vancouver, Wa October 2025 was WONDERFUL! This was our first convention experience with you all, and you have raised our expectations for other’s events. We had a several first time convention dancers of all ages, and the general consensus from parents and dancers was that everyone truly felt special. Things our staff loved: 1) Security! Thank you for your attention to detail. 2) Lunch for teachers and kids. 3) Teaching more than the basic genres - thank you for both lyrical and contemporary along with the many sub genres of jazz. 4) Jackie’s teacher talk was a great time to connect with others from Oregon/Washington we hadn’t met before (and then exchanged Instagram accounts). 5) Giving the mini dancers a time to shine during the closing show.

The BEST DANCE Competition and Convention system hands down! If you’re a studio researching your options definitely BE SURE to check out CELEBRITY!!! My 13yr old daughter Araylia is a competitive dancer at VIBE Dance Studio in Snohomish, Washington and we couldn’t be happier with Celebrity! Drew Phillp, Bailey, Jenna, Alex, AND THE ENTIRE Celebrity team and Crew are BEYOND AMAZING! Directors, faculty, and staff are always warm, welcoming, and most important they are all incredibly FUN to be around and learn from. Dancers are greeted with HUGE smiles and the feeling that the Celebrity team is genuinely happy to have them there. My daughter LOVES Celebrity SOOOOO much, it's by far her FAVORITE Competition & Convention company! Whether it’s your first time or if you attend Celebrity multiple times a year like us I guarantee that you'll be leaving Celebrity with incredible dance memories to last a lifetime. When I add all of that together coupled with the skills my daughter learns AND the friendships she makes along the way I couldn’t be happier to attend Celebrity as a dance mom! It’s clear that Drew builds a culture around positivity, kindness, support, respect, friendship, and FUN all while allowing the dancers to compete to their full potential AND learn from the incredibly talented instructors on staff with Celebrity! Drew himself, is hands on and present every single day of the week for competitions, conventions, and Nationals! I’ve never seen a director more present and dedicated to supporting their team, the studios, and their dancers. Everything runs smoothly and on time, they’re organized and prepared, their stages, sets, floors, and screens are amazing, and everyone's always ready for the great week or weekend ahead! My daughter had the honor of being selected for Celebrity Jr Crew 2024/25 (which was definitely an early dance dream of hers) and she had the absolute best time on the Celebrity National Stage in Las Vegas, made lifelong friends on both Celebrity Senior and Jr Crew, and is already talking non-stop about her next Celebrity Experience! WE LOVE CELEBRITY SOOO MUCH AND ARE SURE YOU WILL TOO!

Best dance competition I’ve been to! Very professional with great conventions and detailed critiques from well qualified judges! We will definitely come back to Celebrity dance competitions and nationals! Overall fantastic experience!

Nationals at Sea while being a Jr Crew member was an absolute dream for my daughter! From being announced as a recipient, the scheduling of event, to being on land and sea we couldn’t have asked for more. The entire staff of Celebrity including Drew himself made our experience incredible. They were organized, friendly, upbeat, enthusiastic and so committed to putting on the best event! We were happily surprised with the attention to detail and how not only our dancer but our whole family was celebrated too. Dancing with professionals, training with some of the best and competing on international waters is a treasure! We love Regional Celebrity competitions and now we love Nationals too! Thank you for everything 💕

We had the most incredible experience at Celebrity Dance Nationals in Las Vegas! My daughter had the honor of being a Jr. Crew member this year, and from day one, the staff and fellow crew members made her feel truly welcome and supported. The environment was filled with encouragement, positivity, and inclusivity, something that can be rare in competitive spaces. What stood out most was how Celebrity prioritizes character alongside talent. They inspired dancers not only to grow as performers, but as kind, confident, and compassionate individuals. The friendships built here will last long beyond the stage. The convention classes were top-tier led by some of the most respected teachers and choreographers in the industry and the closing show gala was nothing short of magical. Every dancer, no matter their style or background, was celebrated. Thank you, Celebrity, for creating a space where young dancers can thrive both on and off the dance floor. We can’t wait to come back!

I loved celebrity nationals so much! The environment was super friendly and felt like home. I am so grateful i was apart of the Las Vegas 2025 junior crew. Everyone on junior crew was super inviting and we instantly clicked. Most of us not knowing more than one person. The rehearsals were filled with fun. The best part was when we as a team got to perform our piece during the gala! An unforgettable experience that’s for sure! The senior crew were also incredibly nice and inspiring. All the faculty members were super sweet and supportive. Celebrity is one of my favorite competitions and I would recommend to everyone!

The competitions and conventions are top notch and so much fun. My daughter has attended many of these competitions and most recently was invited to be a junior crew member where she was able to learn new styles of dance and participate in a show in addition to performing her solo. This was such a a unique experience my daughter also said she was able to receive great feedback from instructors and helped with her confidence. The staff is great always ready to answer questions with a smile as well.

Celebrity is one of the best competitions I have attended since I have been dancing! Not only is it fun and exciting, the judges and staff are super nice and provide so much support for young dancers like me!! I am so excited for Nationals and Convention this year!!!

An amazing dance competition that truly allows dancers to express themselves freely and passionately on stage. The atmosphere is electric, fostering creativity and confidence in every performer. The staff are kind-hearted, welcoming, and positively engaged, creating a supportive environment for both dancers and families. Judges offer realistic scoring and thoughtful critiques that not only motivate but also help dancers grow and improve. A well organized, inspiring experience from start to finish.

I have been coming to celebrity since I was 10 years old, and it’s the competition/convention that feels like home to me! Celebrity has always been filled with the most welcoming and supportive staff. They also have the most perfect mix of a competitive and positive environment. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to be on senior crew this year, and I’m proud to represent such an amazing company!

My daughter has been attending Celebrity competitions and conventions for 5 years and they are always her favorite. We are at an "intermediate" studio, and since Celebrity is one that doesn't do levels it is a great opportunity for my daughter to compete against dancers she typically wouldn't. The energy is always high at all of their events and their professionalism is top notch. She loves the Dance Down and participates in it every year. Judging is well rounded and their judges are very knowledgeable, we also love the complimentary pictures. We will continue to attend Celebrity events and recommend them highly!

Celebrity dance competition and convention definitely make sure to make you feel like a Celebrity. I love how encouraging the staff is and the energy they give off is so amazing. Celebrity is my favorite convention and competition to go to and I always look forward to it every season.

If you want to feel like a celebrity and receive top-notch training, this is the convention for you! Or if you want to go to a convention where you get great feedback and experience being treated like a celebrity the competition is the way to go. They sell out early and there's a reason. I highly recommend this company. My daughter has been to the convention for many years and the competition too. She is now going to be part of senior crew and she is over the moon to get to work of this staff even more.

We are beyond grateful for the incredible opportunity our daughter has been given to dance as part of the Senior Crew at Celebrity Dance at Sea Nationals. This experience is more than a competition—it’s a celebration of passion, artistry, and inclusion. What makes Celebrity truly exceptional is the way it embraces dancers of all backgrounds and skill levels, creating a supportive environment where everyone is seen, valued, and inspired to rise. The staff, choreographers, and organizers set the tone with professionalism and warmth, upholding the highest standards in both performance and character. Celebrity doesn’t just support dance—it champions the arts and elevates the entire industry. From the stage to the sea, this experience is and will be transformative. Our daughter always feels challenged, empowered, and part of something much bigger than herself with Celebrity. Thank you, Celebrity, for cultivating excellence, fostering lifelong memories, and reminding dancers everywhere that their dreams are worth chasing.

I've been attending Celebrity Dance Competitions and Conventions since I was 7 years old and every year they have the most welcoming crew, teachers, and environment. This year i've been selected for their senior crew and im so excited to be working with Celebrity.

Celebrity Dance is just one of those places where you feel like you belong. Everyone is so kind and understanding and treats everyone with respect. I got an opportunity to be part of the 2024 junior crew and this was an amazing experience. I got to know the senior crew and the faculty a lot better and no matter who I talked to, they all had the same welcoming smile and kind words that made me feel like I was meant to be there. Going into junior crew was scary at first because I didn't know anybody, but having all those amazing people help me made it 100x better! Apart from the wonderful faculty, Celebrity is just so fun! It's like a party and competition in one. Their award ceremonies are so fun and they have the BEST backdrops for taking pictures. The competition is also run so well and organized! At Celebrity, they make sure that every dancer feels included and has fun at every event. Overall, it is an amazing competition and I love it so much! Peace, love CELEBRITY!!!

I love this chance to praise Celebrity Dance Competition. My daughter had the honor of dancing with the Jr. Crew this year. It was the most amazing experience for her. The lifelong skills these teachers instill on the dancers are like no other. She has made lifelong friends, got to dance under her idol teachers and had so much fun. Thank you Celebrity for offering such an experience!!!! You really know how to make the dancers and families feel special!

I had so much fun dancing at Celebrity! I loved being a part of the junior dance crew, what an experience and a great opportunity for me to grow as a dancer. I got to meet new friends and take master classes. Everyone was so kind, friendly and made each day so fun. I loved this celebrity experience!! I can’t wait till next time! Amaiya Hamm-Auburn Dance Academy

Celebrity Nationals was AMAZING!! The staff was friendly, kind, approachable and fun. Every detail was thought of, from gifts to dancers to time for dance and time for fun, like the pool party. We felt like a celebrity 🤍 this was our first time at a nationals and it was by far our favorite 🤩 Xoxo, Toni

Our family absolutely loves Celebrity! Each class,award ceremony, Cypher etc is always filled with energy,excitement and positivity! The staff is encouraging and attentive and they truly make everyone feel like a Celebrity! Celebrity is definitely our competition of choice!

I want to commend Celebrity Dance Competitions for their exceptional conventions, competitions, and nationals. They are always well-run and organized, making the experience seamless and enjoyable. As a parent, I appreciate the ample staff available to approach with questions. Everyone, from the lobby to backstage, is always happy to see my dancer. One of the highlights is that pictures are included at competitions, which is a fantastic touch. My dancer also loves receiving a free gift, adding to the excitement. The venues chosen are spacious and capable of holding large crowds comfortably, which is a huge plus. My daughter feels like a true celebrity coming to these events, which adds to the magic. Celebrity offers programs for dancers who want to advance in their dance journey, including Masterclasses, Conventions, Junior Crew, and Senior Crew. When dancers are awarded scholarships and opportunities to participate it helps reinforce that the dancers hard work has not gone unnoticed. My child learned and grew so much from them participating at all their events. Thank you Celebrity. See you soon! 🩷🖤 @ElsieRoseDances

I love CELEBRITY. CELEBRITY is my favorite dance competition, it is the only place I like taking master classes. I enjoy going every year and the staff is great.

Our studio had an amazing experience at Celebrity Nationals at Sea in Miami 2024. The event was nothing short of spectacular, with the entire Celebrity staff making us feel like true celebrities. The competition was well organized and on schedule, and the master classes were incredible! We enjoyed a variety of fun events, including the bon voyage party, the boomerang photo booth, deck pool party on the ship, and the private teachers party. It was so special enjoying wonderful dinners each night on the ship together as a studio. The last night of Nationals we enjoyed a fabulous closing show where all the Master Teachers performed as well as the talented Junior and Senior Crew Kids - the choreography was outstanding. This is one Nationals where we got to spend alit time together as a dance family. I HIGHLY recommend Celebrity Nationals at Sea and cannot wait for next year! We made memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you Celebrity Dance!!!!

I absolutely love Celebrity Dance Competition! I have been competing at celebrity since I was 9 years old and it is by far my favorite competition ever! The staff is incredible. I look forward to Celebrity every year!!

Celebrity Dance Competitions sets the standard for dance competitions, conventions, and training! The effort and attention to detail that staff put in to every event is unmatched. The staff and faculty are professional, personable, and passionate. The events are incredibly well organized. Celebrity has played a significant role in my daughter's dance education and training over the years. You won't find a better culture than you find at Celebrity! They not only make you feel "like a celebrity", they make you feel like family!

Celebrity Dance Conventions and Competitions has been at the heart of our daughter’s elementary, middle, and high school dance experiences. As a dance parent I have never felt so welcome and supported by a dance convention and competition. They have helped to create more dance opportunities and strengthened her skills with amazing dance choreographers. She looks forward to the fun with her friends and growth as a dancer every year! ❤️

I have been going to Celebrity events for many years now and I can truly say they are the best part of my dance season. The staff are always so nice and welcoming, the classes are full of energy and positivity, and the competition always runs smoothly. I can't wait to continue my experience with celebrity for the years to come!!

I love going to celebrity competitions every year with my studio! It is always a positive environment and runs very smoothly. They are almost always on time or ahead which is so nice, especially at the end of a long comp weekend! Another thing I love is the dance down, and being able to make new friends while waiting backstage and the opportunity to receive some amazing scholarships.

As a dance parent for the last 15 years (2 dancing daughters!), I cannot sing enough praises for the incredible experience we have at Celebrity Dance Competitions. This competition is our favorite of the season, and for so many reasons. The level of professionalism displayed by everyone at Celebrity involved is unmatched. It is clear that the organizers put in tremendous effort to ensure everything runs smoothly. It is always impeccably organized, with clear schedules and the staff are always friendly and approachable to assist us with any questions or needs. The judging deserves special mention. It's evident that the judges are seasoned professionals who take their roles seriously, providing fair, constructive, and encouraging feedback to all the dancers. This fairness and transparency make a huge difference and leave us feeling that we can trust in them to deliver expert level reviews. Overall, Celebrity Dance stands out in the dance competition world. Our entire experience has always been positive and memorable, from the refreshingly well organized events to the high standards of judging and the warm, professional environment. We can't wait to return next season!

My daughter and I LOVE Celebrity Dance Competitions. The staff is amazing and so talented. Everyone at Celebrity is always so welcoming and friendly. I have always felt like they care for each and every dancer. We have been going to Celebrity competitions for a long time and it's always a pleasure to see everyone and know that they will be challenged !

My daughter and I BOTH look forward to celebrity convention and competition every year. The staff is always smiling and helpful. Everything runs on time. The faculty at conventions celebrate individuality and do an amazing job of making every class inspirational and fun as well as challenging. My child has never gotten a scholarship here or placed top ten with her solo, but will still ask to return year after year excited to learn and to compete because she receives great feedback and has a blast. As a parent, I love the complimentary tshirt, the lunches provided at conventions. The pictures and videos are some of my favorite of the entire season, too. Thanks, Celebrity, for making a long dance weekend enjoyable for everyone!! Finally, the Seattle venue can not be beat. It’s our favorite PNW venue hands down!!

We LOVE Celebrity Dance! Competitions always have great feedback for my dancer and fair judgment. Conventions are the absolute best! So fun and worth every penny! The staff is always amazing at both competitions and conventions!

Celebrity is hands down one of the best nationals my daughter has attended. The love the whole celebrity team pours into these dancers is seen every minute of the event. From class time to motivational talks to high fives going into class. My daughter was in junior crew this year and loved every minute. She didn’t want it to end. Thank you Celebrity for making my girl feel, “like a celebrity!”

Amazing competition! I attended Celebrity in the past and this year I went to their nationals. I had the opportunity to be part of the Celebrity Junior Crew and got to perform in the Celebrity Closing Show. I had so much fun and met so many new people! Celebrity is such a well-rounded dance competition from their conventions to their regionals to their nationals! And a huge thank you to Drew, the celebrity faculty, the senior crew, the celebrity paparazzi, and everyone who works behind the scenes!!

This was our first year to attend Celebrity Nationals, and we loved it! My son was the only one from his studio and was so worried about being by himself. Celebrity faculty and crew are amazing! All are super helpful and friendly. The Celebrity atmosphere has such a positive vibe! Everything is well put together and organized. He loved all the dance classes and participating in the Celebrity Cyphers! We all had a wonderful experience, and he made many new friends!

We just attended the Celebrity Nationals and I can't say enough about the amazing experience we had. From the beginning, the communication from Celebrity is outstanding. The event is so well put-together, down to the detail. The extra events are so much fun, and the staff does a great job learning the dancer's names. My daughter had the time of her life as a junior crew member. She also loved the video experience and had a blast participating in the Cypher dance off. Everything was so much fun and we are so thankful for the amazing experience.

This I my second year going to celebrity nationals and it was amazing, It is the best competition I have ever been to the people are so fun and you meet so many new people. This year I got to be apart of junior and it was great!The people there are also great with makes it even better!

I am so excited to attend the 2023 Celebrity Nationals with Dance Studio 111! This is my 2nd year and last year was so much fun. The classes were awesome, competition was amazing and I loved going to Disneyland with my team. This year I am apart of the crew and I feel extra excited about this new opportunity!

My daughter has competed at Celebrity for years and we love it!!! Always a good time and the staff is so friendly and approachable!! I hope our studio continues to go to this competition for years to come!!!!

My daughter has been attending Celebrity Conventions & Competitions for three years and every time we attend we are blown away by all the little details. Every dancer is truly treated like a celebrity from cute free shirts, lunch at conventions, positive encouraging teachers, judges & staff, personal connections, photo op backdrops, the dance down, high energy-the list goes on. We are grateful to get to experience Celebrity Dance and can’t wait for next time.

Our studio just attended Celebrity this past weekend in Arizona. Once again, another amazing competition! Our dancers truly were treated like a Celebrity. Every dancer is handed a cute free Celebrity shirt at check in. The Celebrity store and all the fun photo backdrops made the entire lobby of the theater a fun social hang out. The Vibe all weekend was positive, upbeat and just so much FUN! An added touch was Celebrity treated studio owners and their teachers to dinner on Saturday evening and on Sunday morning they treated us to our favorite Starbucks. Just so many extra special touches. The staff is always so kind and they make each dancer feel so special. As a studio owner I highly recommend attending a Celebrity event! We made memories to last a lifetime! Cannot wait for Nationals! Thank you Celebrity!!!

Celebrity has been a competition my studio and I have been going to for years. Every time I find myself enjoying it more and more. It allows each dancer to find their own strengths and really grow their love and passion for dance.

I have being going to Celebrity since I was little and continue to go. The environment in and out of classes and competition is always welcoming and positive. It is an incredible experience for anyone who attends.

Celebrity is very organized, and everything is well thought out. The staff is friendly, and my dancers love all the extras like the free tee and other cute merch, the Dance Down, the social media involvement, all the fun backdrops to take pictures and the fact that we have access to pictures, videos and critiques after the event. This is a perfect way to engage the little dancers and help them to improve. This competition is one of our favorites.

Outstanding on every level. From the registration process through to the awards ceremony. Leadership at the top is evident in every employee.

To whom it may concern i had some questions about an upcoming regional event. A Ms. Olivia Gregg answered the phone. She was amazing. She was engaging, friendly and very professional. She is truly an asset to Celebrity

To Whom It May Concern I just contacted the Celebrity office in regards our registration for Celebrity Phoenix Convention and was directed to Miss Olivia Gregg. I have owned and operated my dance studio for 29 years and I have to compliment your team member Olivia on being so kind and helpful with all my questions. So many competition and convention companies have no one working in their office. It sometimes takes days to get a response from other companies. Your entire Celebrity team is incredible and I appreciate all you do for me as a Studio Owner. We look forward to Celebrity Phoenix Convention. And please let Miss Olivia Gregg know she did an excellent job in answering my questions. Sincerely Kimberly Lewis Owner Dance Studio 111

We LOVE Celebrity! We attended Convention for the first time last fall in Minneapolis with roughly 20 of our dancers and had an absolute blast! One our dancers was selected for Junior Crew which landed us here at Nationals. We took our Solos, Duets and Trios to regionals in March which was a favorite for all of our dancers. At both the Convention and Competition Drew and the Celebrity staff spoiled the Instructors/Owners. There are so many smiling faces helping out at any time, incredible Instructors, judging staff and Drew, Elizabeth and Jenna all have gone out of their way to make sure all of our questions have been answered. I love all the fine details- from the small programs, to the free videos and photos, to having everything clearly marked on where to be and all the extras they offer for the teachers. Lunches, Dinners and Bar Kiki! As both a studio owner and dance parent I would and do I highly recommend Celebrity. The atmosphere is positive, inspiring, and all around a class act. Having a dancer here for Junior Crew has been a wonderful experience as well. They really do treat them like Celebrities. I love their positive feedback and push to make each dancer try their best. It has been fun to see the Junior Crew bond from all over the US. Overall I highly recommend Celebrity and cannot wait to now bring our entire Comp Team of over 150 dancers in the fall!

I have been to celebrity competitions and conventions since I was little.it has always been my favorite comp./convention. I love the positive energy and amazing people that are there. I had dreamed about being on celebrity senior crew since I started going to their events. I am so glad I get to be on crew and make new memories with new people.

My daughter is 16 and has been competing with Celebrity Dance since she was 6 or 7 years old. Celebrity has always stood out with such friendly staff who are so polite and supportive towards any and all who attend their events. We love that their regional competitions include a dance down! Celebrity conventions are also so much fun with amazing teachers who always leave my daughter feeling inspired and wanting more.

My daughter has been dancing since she was 2 years old and competing since she was 7. Celebrity competitions and conventions have always been her favorite!!! The Staff is awesome and friendly and always go out of their way to say hi and to be of help when we have questions.... The teachers never hesitate to take pictures with the kids after class. I feel like my kid grew up with Celebrity. Love them for sure!!!

Rated the comp from last Spring, which was great at the height of COVID, but then went to the convention this past fall... not what we expected. As a g-parent of a TEEN, our dancer does not want us to watch, but we snuck in a quite a few times - always the same dancers up front and being called out. I understand COVID precautions, so teachers may not want to walk around the room, but where everybody is suppose to be treated as a Celebrity, should not different dancers be called out? Only one teacher stayed on the stage to see dancers in the back. It is IMPOSSIBLE to see dancers in the back of the room from the front of the room on floor, even if you are 6 feet tall! Just real dis-appointing, because we too witnessed dancers literally pushing other dancers to be up front and then those pushers were getting all the recognition - so sad how the dance world seems to reward and promote ugliness. :( Our dancer almost always takes the back of the room, because she refuses to be around the pushiness and she likes to have room to dance, plus having a medical condition she likes to have the extra room, but being in the back and the fact that she pulled her solo from the convention competition (for medical reason - NOT COVID realated) seemed to leave her completely un-noticed and she felt defeated and punished. She usually enjoys Celebrity, and at least gets one or two calls out, but this time, after 3 days - not one call out or recognition - it was ALL the same girls that were UP FRONT!! We have never seen it like that - so sad. COVID is not an excuse for laziness - and dancers should not feel unnoticed and defeated because they choose the back - SOMEONE has to dance in the back!

My daughter has been attending celebrity conventions and competitions for the past 3 years, since 5 years old. This has always been a positive environment, great teachers and content. My daughter loves the special attention to detail from the pink carpet, backdrops for pics, check in bracelets to being provided with lunch. No other convention or competition does this. Their trophies change and they keep it new and fresh. I know my money is always well spent at Celebrity!

Just got home from the convention and have to say the convention was a NIGHTMARE! The checkin took 4ever! Line was all the way down the hotel and took us 1hr to get through registration. Then when we got to registration they ran out of the CONVNETION BOOK/schedule. The schedule is hard to read: not all parents can read size 4 font printed on a dark purple and dark blue background! COME ON! I had to take a picture with my phone and blow it up. Part of the convention price includes lunch and Sunday's lunch did not include any protein! The convention itself - the only one we have been too where it’s encouraged that you push your way to the front to be seen. Only one teacher walked around the room to see all the dancers. We all know those dancers that push their way to the front, just to be seen. Well at Celebrity, if your dancer actually stays at the back so they have room to move they will in no way be seen or have a chance at getting called out! Witnessed it first hand. Saw some amazing dancers in the back of the room not one was called out. The same dancers, over and over in the front only were called out! Unless your dancer is pushy and doesn’t care about dance space, please avoid this convention! I hope our studio does not go back!

This was my first convention as a parent, and my daughter's first convention as a dancer (Minneapolis). She was in the Junior's room and we have nothing but good things to say about the weekend! The routines that the teachers taught were perfect for the age group and skill level, the teachers themselves were amazing, staff was great, we loved the setup of the venue, and as a cherry on top - my daughter won a partial scholarship for next year's convention! Thank you Celebrity for an amazing weekend and we can't wait to come back next year!

Very well run and efficient competition. There is no reason to be concerned about COVID, because Celebrity has very large and clean dressing rooms. The stage is cleaned after so much time is passed - even if it is during your studio's dance block. Also, the check in system is organized! Truly, the entire competition is well organized - videos are posted when they say they will be posted and so are the awards ceremonies. Celebrity is very professional... so sure you will not be disappointed! :)

This was our first time attending a Celebrity Dance Competition and it did not disappoint!! Our dancers, parents and teachers had a blast. They were so well organized and efficient! The block scheduling, due to the social distancing requirements, was a dream. We cannot wait to attend another Celebrity event!

Celebrity always does it right; even with new rules and regulations, they went above and beyond to make the dancers and faculty feel comfortable and special during their event. I appreciate that they genuinely take the time to have conversations with the teacher and dancers, and they never skimp out on handing tangible awards for our performers. I know that's not the main goal of a competition, but it's nice for dancers to walk away with something after such a challenging year. Thank you, Celebrity, for being a very well-run competition with fantastic leadership, staff, and judges. We appreciate you so very much!

My daughter danced in the San Antonio competition this past weekend with Juleigh Holley’s School of Dance. This was our first time at a Celebrity Competition and it was a great experience! We loved how the staff greeted us and showed us where to go, professionalism of the competition, and having access to critiques and photos so soon after the event. Thank you for all your hard work that allows our kids to continue doing what they love in these weird times.

What an amazing experience!!! The staff was wonderful and upbeat and made the girls feel so special to be there doing what they love! It was a fabulous event and we are blessed to have been a part of it. Thank you Celebrity!

My husband and I were so impressed with how organized and thoughtful the Celebrity staff, faculty, and crew were with handling a convention during this pandemic. They put a lot of work and effort into making the weekend safe and fun! Our 3 kids had a blast and felt a bit more “normal” again because they got to do what they love...Dance! Well done Celebrity Dance!!!

Celebrity is such a humbling, invested, exciting, and welcoming competition. At each event, they are very on top of everything in order to make sure that everyone has a great and organized experience. At all of the conventions and competitions that Celebrity hosts, they teach you not only about dance and furthering a dancer’s artistry, but also growing yourself as a person! The venues and run of things always go so smoothly and their communication is incredible. Such a beautiful environment that they give to everyone who attends.

Every Celebrity event is so fun and I always feel so welcomed! While at Celebrity Conventions I learn so much to help further my knowledge of dance, but also I learn a lot to help further my growth as a human. The weekends I spend at Celebrity’s events are always super fun filled and knowledgeable. The whole Celebrity staff will make you feel welcomed and like a celebrity!

At every Celebrity event I have felt so welcomed. I have learned so much from the amazing faculty and truly felt like a Celebrity the whole weekend. Overall, I really love Celebrity and how special they make every dancer feel!!

Celebrity is one of the most welcoming competitions and conventions i've ever been too. The faculty is amazing and the environment is unexplainable! I love spending my weekends with everyone from Celebrity!

I can truly say that I have only had the best quality experiences at Celebrity events. At convention, the energy is so inspiring and every dancer leaves stronger than before. At competition, all studios are supportive, the event always runs on time, and the judging panel is top tier. Celebrity truly is a family and no matter what event you go to, you are treated like a Celebrity!!

I have loved all celebrity events that I have attended! Every event you go to you have an amazing faculty, helpful staff dance stage, and amazing assistants at conventions! Celebrity is the first convention to make me feel amazing while dancing! Celebrity Dance really does make you feel like a celebrity!

Celebrity is a true family when you talk about the faculty. They truly care for the dancers and want the best for them. They do not just teach dance, they teach real lessons and give great advice about so many subjects. Once you go Celebrity you never go back.

My studio recently attended our rescheduled regional event due to COVID-19. The Celebrity Team ran an event that would pass a white glove test in the middle of a pandemic and I applaud all involved. The preparedness, attention to detail and exemplary customer service of the Celebrity experience can obviously withstand the most unexpected of challenges. I personally feel that this company has set a new standard for what could be the foreseeable future of regional dance competitions. Celebrity has set the bar very high. Drew's leadership has built a remarkable team made up of wildly talented, genuine humans that all contribute to creating the Celebrity experience.

So far this competition out of all of them that I have been to has the nicest venue and such a faulty!!

I can't say enough about how AWESOME Celebrity is and how much it means to us. When we attended a Celebrity convention for the first time, my daughter was 14 and had been dancing for 10 years and was at the time in such a low place feeling like all her hard work was going nowhere...she wasn't meeting any of her goals and honestly we were discussing throwing in the towel on dance. Something magical happened at this celebrity convention...when the faculty spoke to the dancers from their hearts, it REALLY hit her and by the last day...she was a whole new dancer and has been on fire and meeting her goals ever since!!! This faculty genuinly CARES about these dancers!!! Love, love, love Celebrity!!!

I have been going to Celebrity since I was about 12, and it gets better every year. This past season, especially, was one of the best experiences I've had as a dancer. The energy is always so positive, and the staff and crew really DO make you feel like a Celebrity. This competition will forever and always be my favorite.

Celebrity always has a family feel to it. The staff and everyone associated with celebrity are always amazing and welcoming. They do a great job of making everyone truly feel special!

I love how unique Celebrity is as well as how much fun it is to attend. The staff is always kind and encouraging, they’re always on time, and the dance down is an extremely fun experience. I appreciate how much they pay attention to detail for our benefit.

I look forward to Celebrity Dance Conventions/Competitions every year! The entire staff is so welcoming and truly makes every single dancer feel like a celebrity. The whole environment is completely nurturing, and you can’t help but feel inspired by the positive energy and encouragement. I learn new things every single year, and I always walk out of the weekend feeling grateful, appreciated, and inspired!

We look forward to Celebrity competition and convention each year. Staff is always friendly, courteous and professional. The competitions and conventions are very well organized. The attention to detail and having the dancers’ best interest in mind separates Celebrity apart from other dance competitions/conventions. The staff truly makes everyone feel like a celebrity and customer service is second to none.

Celebrity Dance Competitions are always a favorite. The vibe is always fun and exciting with super friendly staff. I'm always impressed with how smooth each event runs, The party atmosphere and personalities of each staff member set Celebrity apart from the rest. I look forward to every year!!

We just attend Celebrity Dance Competition this past weekend. The name is perfect...the moment you entered the building the staff greeted us and made us feel like a Celebrity. We loved having a competition in a beautiful venue - the Mesa Art Center. To be able to compete on a large theater stage was wonderful. Our dancers loved receiving a free cute Celebrity shirt. The competition ran on time, the staff was kind and professional, great communication... the entire weekend was wonderful! We made great memories to last a lifetime. Our studio will be attending Celebrity Convention in the fall and Nationals at Sea 2020. Thank you Celebrity!

This is my favorite comp of the year. My background is in marketing and I feel like Celebtrity has this down! The dancers love the shirts and water bottles as a gesture of customer service. The parents love the pictures and videos as a gesture of customer service. And the studios love the online accounts and personalized schedules as gestures of customer services. But as my dancer wears her shirt throughout the year and I see all of our families sharing pictures and videos online (only from this comp because they are included) my marketing brain perks up. The screens behind the dancers, the two camera shots of video showing professionalism, the scripted announcements and C-E-L-E-B-R-I-T-Y chant before awards are all building a culture of excellence. GREAT work and we can't wait to come back next year!

Celebrity is the most organized and fun competition and convention! The staff makes it so easy for dancers, parents, and teachers. They do such a great job a making it a fun weekend for everyone involved! It is definitely the best competition/convention around!

I know going into every Celebrity Dance Competitions and/or conventions I don't have to worry about being welcomed or doubt that I will have an amazing experience. The competition is always so organized and on top of stying on time. The crew is always so respectful and a huge help! The family welcome vibe all around makes me love Celebrity and I would recommend it to any dancer.

Celebrity Dance Competitions have always been a favorite and now the conventions! The staff, and the Teacher are extremely friendly and always make sure the kids as well as the parents feel like Celebrities! Every year they step up their game and impress me every time!!! love them all!!

Amazing competition and conventions. The staff is friendly, inspiring, and completely so well organized that it makes for a seamless awesome experience. I highly recommend this to every dancer.

Really excited for this competition. My girls will be pereforming for the firest time this coming season

I absolutely LOVE this competition! The dressing rooms were a little far away from three competition, but there was always a golf cart or small bus to carry out girls to and from. Best thing about this competition, they provide a live stream for family and friends to watch from home and later, all video coverage is FREE! Awesome!!

We have always loved Celebrity!!! Their staff is personable and so friendly and helpful! Celebrity has been a part of our dance life for a longtime. From the convention to the regionals to Nationals at Sea, I love everything about them. I feel like they are a part of our family we have got to know them over the years. The competition comes very close to us, so that is nice and it's a well run and fun competition. The judging is fair and fun for the kids. Drew and his staff go out of their way to make sure everyone is having a good time and feel good about themselves. We haven't had the chance to see them this past year, but hope to get back this year. The dance down is also something my daughter has loves participating in. It really gives the kids to get on stage and have fun!! We also love Duke, the Celebrity mascot!!

So excited for this competition. We have never performed here but looks very cool

I absolutely love Celebrity! The staff are an incredible group of professionals that truly have a passion for dance and deeply care about each individual dancer. From the dance downs, complimentary lunches at conventions, fast and energetic award ceremonies and of course their Nationals at Sea; Celebrity Competitions and Conventions is unlike any other! This competition is outstanding and is welcoming to every type of dancer, no matter what, everyone feels like a celebrity!

Celebrity Dance Competition is such an inviting and inspiring environment. I really love all the staff and the feedback we get on our pieces. Love love love Celebrity!

I love Celebrity Dance! They always make me feel so welcome and take the stress out of competitions! See you soon!

We absolutely love Celebrity! The staff is so nice, and Drew is the best!!! Always such a welcoming and friendly environment. The event ran smoothly and on time. Love the awards ceremony. Lots of fun for the dancers. This is one of the toughest competitions with no levels, they only do a top 3 overall, and there has always been at least 50-80 competitors in my daughter's age bracket. I do like how they break it down by style too, so you at least know where you placed there. Since our hours fall under the middle level for any other comp, some of our dancers love to test themselves by participating in this event. The judging seems fair, for the most part, and they get valuable feedback. WHile I am glad to see that they don't just hand out platinums, this is the hardest competition to earn a platinum. My daughter has competed in 10 competitions this year to date and has received the highest medal at everyone EXCEPT Celebrity. LOL. She get's a bit closer each year, and wants to keep trying. All in all, this is definitely a favorite of ours!! Can't wait till the convention in the fall and the next competition next year. Maybe she will finally earn that platinum :-)!

We absolutely love Celebrity. We have been to several Celebrity competitions, conventions (1st time in San Antonio!!) and to Celebrity's Nationals at Sea. The events are well ran. The staff is always willing to answer any question you may have and help if they can. At convention the dancers all had room to dance and not feel like they were right on top of each other. The convention teachers were fantastic, they challenging but encouraging . Some of my daughter's favorite convention teachers are Celebrity teachers. We are excited to start our competition season in January with Celebrity San Antonio.

We attended the San Antonio Convention this time and it was Awesome!!! The Staff is always friendly and super helpful. It was my daughter's first year in the Teen room and the instructors made her feel super comfortable. our next even is San Antonio January competition and we can't wait!!

We attended the Celebrity Convention in San Antonio this past weekend. Unfortunately, we were able to attend only one day instead of the full weekend. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it: Celebrity is the absolute BEST at conventions and competitions. This was my girls' second Celebrity convention and we've been to several Celebrity competitions and Nationals at Sea. They have the most well run events and by far the nicest and most helpful staff. Showstopper comps are also ran very well, but the atmosphere and friendliness of Drew and his staff definitely put Celebrity over the top as the Best of the Best. For any studios out there who may be reading this and trying to decide where to attend, you will not be disappointed with Celebrity!!

This review is for the convention. We just attended this convention at Great Wolf Lodge in Washington. What an amazing event!!!! This convention/competition never disappoints! The teachers were involved and inspiring. They gave attention to all the dancers. It was always the same 3 dancers picked out in literally every single class, but they were pretty good. The staff is super friendly and involved. Love the merchandise and the hot lunch that is provided. We absolutely love this event and can't wait until next year!

Love, Love Love Celebrity Dance Competition and their staff! Their competition is run so smoothly and they make it so much fun for all the dancers and the parents!! We have attended a Nationals and Sea when my daughter was on the Junior Crew and it was a trip my daughter and family will never forget. We hope to attend another Nationals within the next few years before my daughter graduates. One of the highlights is always the Celebrity strut!! We always look forward to them coming to Iowa each year! We are bummed they won't be coming to Iowa this year for the convention, but we will still attend the competition hands down!! See you in February!!

Getting to dance at a Celebrity regional event this past competition season was easily one of the highlights of my year! Everything ran super smoothly, the staff was beyond helpful and kind, and I truly felt like a Celebrity for the duration of the entire regional event! The company does an excellent job of making all dancers feel welcome and special, which truly made the competition so enjoyable and fun! Celebrity is also special in the sense that they have so many opportunities for their participating dancers. I was chosen for a wonderful opportunity known as the Celebrity Crew and to say I am excited to dance for and represent Celebrity at their Nationals at Sea is an understatement! I would encourage ALL dance studios to partake in a Celebrity regional near them. It is an experience you will never forget and a competition you will definitely want to add to the annual schedule.

Celebrity Dance Competition has always been my favorite competition to attend. It is amazing how smoothly and ON TIME this competition runs, which is something very rare for most other competitions. The staff is not only professional, but also extremely helpful and kind. The connections and friendships made between the staff ad the dancers are unlike anything that you would find at any other competition. It is quite easy to see how much the staff absolutely loves what they are doing, therefor making it a fun and loving atmosphere for all dancers AND families to be in. I highly recommend attending Celebrity Dance Competitions; they truly do make every dancer feel like a celebrity!

The Celebrity Dance Compeitions have always been and always will be my favorite competition for many reasons. Celebrity brings many dancers from many different places together to celebrate the art of dance and share what they have worked so hard on. The panel of judges are exquisite and in my opinion the top in the dance industry. I always love getting my judging sheets back because I can tell they care about me and want me to improve. I always meet so many new and kind people from the celebrity staff when i attend their competitions & conventions. The staff cares about making you feel like a part of the celebrity family. I also love how the competition is on time because that doesn't happen a lot. I definitely would recommend going to a celebrity competition or convention because of many reasons. You will not only grow as a dancer, but as a person too!

I attended Celebrity regionals in Mesa, AZ. I have been going to Celebrity for a couple of years now and every year they continue to prove that they are the best of the best. They are always on time and the staff is so supportive. I always enjoy the Celebrity experience and can't wait to go back next year!

The staff is warm and welcoming! Competition ran on time and the judging was fair with top awards across the genres represented. Pretty disappointed in the overall winner in the oldest division because the content was really too adult. Even thought the division goes through age 19, it was inappropriate and I am always dismayed when those types of dances are given high awards. We attended the May 2017 Mesa event.

My kiddos love to dance, and over the years we have spent hours and hours at conventions and competitions. Without a doubt, there is a difference! Celebrity is a drastically better experience than any other! The dancers are known - not by an assigned number like cattle - but by the name of their dance! They have staff walking around making sure everyone is comfortable and aware of which dancer is on deck! Everyone is accessible and friendly.. it feels like family! Dance Down is a great way to stretch the dancers while having a blast.. And the awards are the most amazing dance party ever! Beach balls, music, and dancing.. the energy couldn't be higher and it exudes from the staff-- who are CLEARLY having fun! As a parent that spent three full days there with four of my kids.. I had as big a blast as my dancers! We love the Celebrity treatment and the Celebrity Experience and will look forward to all events hosted by this crew. They are in a league of their own for sure!

Being a graduating senior and looking back on years past, I definitely feel like growing up on the Celebrity stage was such a blessing. They are professional, helpful, and most of all KIND! From asking questions backstage to asking questions via email, the Celebrity staff is always so helpful in making sure all dancers, parents, and teachers are comfortable and prepared. Having experienced their regional competitions, convention, and national competition I am so glad I had the opportunity to experience such an amazing event growing up!

My daughter has done this competition 3 years in a row and I LOVE how they make their dancers feel like Celebrities. All the hard work these dancers put in at the studio to get ready for competitions, Celebrity always rewards them for it. I also have to say that my daughter loves to dance but she gets a little scared when she meets new people. The staff at Celebrities made her feel so comfortable and she really shined on stage this year. Thank You and we will see you next year!!!!

An all around great competition. It runs very smoothly, sticks to the schedule, and is on time which is difficult to say for some other competitions I've been to. The staff is always very nice and the Dance Down is a blast! This is a competition I look forward to every season!

The staff is so friendly and the environment is very inviting, Celebrity really makes me feel like a Celebrity! The judges give amazing feedback and scores to help improve, theyfollow the scheduling, stay mostly on time, and they give out amazing free tanks or t-shirts. I won celebrity nationals crew for this summer and can't wait to become part of the wonderful family and to create some amazing friends and relationships.

I love this competition. They really do treat everyone like a celebrity :). I am glad to be a part of the senior crew this year for nationals at sea! This is overall my favorite dance competition <3.

We just attended Celebrity Seattle this past weekend. We only took 3 dancers(6 solos). They had a great time!!! The staff is very friendly. Merchandise is great and they had a great $10 bin full of items. Love how they give shirts to all competitors. The event ran smoothly and on time. The awards ceremony is so much fun for the dancers. We are from a small studio, and the amount of hours our dancers receive falls in the middle level for other competitions. Celebrity does not have levels, but we have a few dancers that like to test themselves and choose this competition because they do go against all levels. The judges are very fair. Our girl's age bracket was very big (67 solos), but they held their own!!! Was glad to see they definitely don't just hand out platinums. There were a lot of golds and high golds given, and honestly I was so happy to see my daughter received 2 high golds and even happier when I saw how close to platinums her scores were. Even some of the best studios around were receiving high golds, so I was so proud that our dancers were scoring right with them. Love how they also do a top 3 within each dance style. My daughter placed in the top 3 with both solos in her categories. Love their trophies too! My daughter was just saying today how much fun she had at Celebrity! I also really like how they have a parent login where you can see your child's scores. I wish all competitions had parent logins and it would be awesome if more competitions would show in that login where your child placed, if they didn't place in the overalls. Overall, this competition is one of our favorites for sure!!!Can't wait for their convention in the fall!!!

We just attended our fist competition with them in Oklahoma, and my dancers and I were so impressed. We had no idea a competition could be so well organized and actually run true to the estimated performance times. The staff is amazing! They were eager to help in any way they could, and they made us feel welcomed and loved. They took the time to talk to all my dancers and my coaches. They made us feel important, and like we were apart of the Celebrity family. The judges critiques were not only helpful but also encouraging. The awards were crazy fun. They create such a great energy that my coaches and I couldn't help but have a dance party back stage while the dancers were having a blast on stage. Celebrity is by far our new favorite competition!

Staff is amazing they are all so helpful rather you are needing product, pictures or checking in backstage. I love that no matter what they are always running on time and pretty much to the exact time as what is listed in the program. My son loves the dance down experience and the opportunity to grow as a dancer from the competition. He loves the convention in addition to your staff. You are all a family and it is felt from the time you register until you leave the event. I wish i could give a 10.

Five stars for an amazing performance, customer service and kindness.
