November 1 — World Championships in All Age Categories

This evening will host the World Championships in the Smooth division for all age categories — from children to adults — alongside open international competitions in both the Standard and Latin programs.

The night will offer a vibrant fusion of competitive spirit, adrenaline, and pursuit of excellence, intertwined with the aesthetic grace and sophistication of ballroom dance.

Guests will enjoy an elegant dinner, live music, and even the opportunity to join the dance floor between competitions.

November 2 — International Pro-Am Competitions

The final day of the festival will be dedicated to the unique format of Pro-Am (Professional–Amateur), where professional dancers perform together with their students and amateur partners.

This is more than a competition — it is a philosophy of unity and inspiration, bringing together people for whom dance is a form of self-expression and a source of inner harmony.

In the world of Pro-Am, age and level of experience do not matter — anyone can begin their dance journey consciously, discovering the beauty of movement and the joy of artistic freedom.

November 2 will become a true celebration of dance for everyone who believes it is never too late to dance.

Live Music and Atmosphere of Inspiration

All three festival evenings will be accompanied by live music performed by a symphony orchestra under the direction of maestro Boris Myagkov.

Famous melodies by Azerbaijani composers, reimagined in ballroom arrangements — waltz, cha-cha-cha, tango, and foxtrot — will create an atmosphere of refined elegance and emotional inspiration.

A Celebration of Taste and Beauty

Guests will be treated to exclusive dinners, gourmet cuisine, and premium beverages, surrounded by a world where sport meets high art.

The Night of Dancing Diamonds is more than a dance event — it is a moment when the stage transforms into a dazzling celebration of beauty, strength, and inspiration.
