Dance@UNT can’t wait to welcome YOU to the 2026 ACDA South-Central Conference at the University of North Texas in Denton!

For years, the South-Central Conference has been a place where dancers of all styles come together to belong, connect, and be inspired—a space where community is built, creativity thrives, and movement takes on new meaning.

This year, we’re keeping that tradition alive and adding our own UNT spark with four unforgettable days of dance, featuring:

•  3 adjudicators bringing unique perspectives
•  4 adjudication concerts showcasing the best of our region
•  3 Informal Concerts for fearless experimentation
•  1 dazzling Gala concert you won’t want to miss

But that’s just the start…

Special Guest Alert: Alongside our regional adjudicators and teachers, we’re flying in a select group of instructors from outside the region—teaching exclusively on Day 1. Stay tuned for this can’t-miss lineup!

 All conference long, enjoy:

•  8 open dancing spaces for spontaneous creativity 
•  A student lounge stocked with snacks and chill vibes
•  A faculty & staff lounge with great coffee and great conversation
•  Two stunning performance spaces—one for adjudication, one for Informal Concerts

Get ready to connect, create, and celebrate the artistry of dance at the 2026 ACDA South-Central Conference—where UNT turns movement into magic.
