There were three unique competitions held as part of the DIDC Season-I - Nrityanjali, Students Challenge and Corporate Challenge. The participants and the enthusiastic audience made the competition a memorable one for all. “The applause just kept coming. We witnessed an unprecedented show of talent during the last season especially during Corporate Challenge, forcing us to believe that there is no dearth for dancing talent in Dubai,” said the idcdubai team. The participants were enthusiastic and thrilled. A trio participant from Season-I commented - "If anything, we've been fortunate enough to be a part of this competition and we can’t wait to be back once again”.
As a result, the idcdubai team is confident that the numbers will be exceptionally high in Season-II and are ready to pull all stops to ensure that the competition is enjoyed by both the participants as well as the audience.
