The World Ballet Day has been cancelled this year, the organisers’ website says.
It says, “After 10 fantastic years of bringing together audiences around the globe on World Ballet Day, The Australian Ballet, The Royal Ballet, and San Fransisco Ballet have decided to pause the event this year.
“We're looking to return in 2025 with a refreshed and dynamic approach, bringing the World Ballet Day celebrations to even more people.”
It is not clear when the statement was uploaded to the website. The organisers do not elaborate the reasons for the cancellation.
This is so saddening! Also, I would host a store-wide sale on World Ballet Day in the past five years. I will look into a nice way to host a sale this year.
Here is World Ballet Day 2023 with The Royal Ballet. Enjoy it, for now.
(Update: there seems to be an Instagram account pretending to be the World Ballet Day 2024. The link in the bio leads to an empty web page. The URL of the official WBD website is https://worldballetday.com )
