I don't think there is a good time really for international visitors. Oct-Dec is when they hold their Oireachtas so they wouldn't travel here, beginning of the year they have All Irelands and Worlds. It will never work and imagine them coming all the way here, spending thousands and find themselves in Bankstown, that would be so embarrassing for us! Even their weekend feis are held in nice hotels with 100's of competitors. Would have to be QLD. -- Australian Irish Dance Message Board

In reply to: Might be worth considering 's message, "That’s a good point, that’s why I said “one of the warmer months” though, because that includes April, September, October, November and even early December could be better timing." on Tue, Jul 18 2023, 21:47:18"

My DD never competed at the AIO before covid. (NT) -- Did any international dancers enter when it was held at the Gold Coast?, Thu, Jul 20 2023, 22:18:00"
- International numbers have remained at a similar level. A few from UK, Ireland, Canada or the US. Usually if their teacher was coming to play music/run a workshop. Numbers from NZ have remained steady pre/post Covid. It’s a great opportunity for Australian and NZ dancers to compete against each other. (NT) -- -, Fri, Jul 21 2023, 10:07:25"
