Love Dancing with the Stars? Then the 2026 Tasmanian Open DanceSport Championships is your chance to feel that same energy live.
On Saturday 8 August 2026, the Silverdome Launceston will come alive as dancers from across Australia deliver their very best performances, competing for cash, glory and championship honours beneath the roar of a live audience.
With internationally renowned adjudicators, stunning production, a world-class dance floor and signature Tasmanian hospitality, the TasOpen is highly regarded as more than a competition - it's a spectacular night of entertainment, elegance and excitement.
Crowned “Australia’s Dance Competition of the Year” by Dance Review magazine, the 2026 event proudly welcomes 9-time World Latin Champion Bryan Watson, plus an electrifying evening opener from 2025 Dancing with the Stars Champion Kyle Shilling and Lily Cornish.
From the fire of Latin to the grace of Ballroom, this is where champions rise and the crowd comes alive.
