Thus, all those interested are invited to participate in the largest collective dance ever organized in Bucharest, which will co-occur in all five hotspots on Calea Victoriei.
We want to offer an unforgettable experience to all who will participate in the second edition of the Noaptea Dansului event, to bring them even closer to the phenomenon of dance and to offer them moments through which they can feel its community character. So, we have included in the program a fundamental piece of Romanian folklore that will bring a dizzying rhythm to Calea Victoriei, offering all participants sensations and a feeling of joy that will not soon be forgotten.
