"Bahar Bayram" is 4 wonderful days and nights of Music and Dance Workshops, Concerts, Belly Dance Cabarets and Balkan dance parties, set in the beautiful Numinbah Valley in the Gold Coast Hinterland of South East Queensland.
Our fourth annual camp, to be held in October 2009, will feature some of the most talented teachers and performers in Australia's Middle Eastern and Balkan dance and music scene. Following the success of the 2006, 2007 and 2008 camps, “Bahar Bayram” is fast developing a reputation as a memorable and exciting experience.
Unique to Australia, Bahar Bayram is a chance to immerse yourself in music and dance, develop your skills, meet people with the same interests and be part of a community of creative and inspiring people. Our teachers are selected for their talents and knowledge and also for their friendly and generous personalities.
All workshops, concerts, activities, meals and accommodation are included in the fees and the camp is very affordable. Families are welcomed and included, as are dancers and musicians of all levels of skill.
Testimonials from Previous Attendees
"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the team for your fantastic camp this year. I had so much fun and felt that the vibe was brilliant and I loved the live music. So thanks again I really appreciated all the hard work and effort you all go to so we can have a great time and learn so many new skills in a warm, fun environment." Tracey Williams
"Huge thanks to everyone associated with making last weekend's camp such an exciting, enjoyable and rewarding experience. Taking new people to a previously enjoyed event is always a bit risky, but the "newbies" who came along were blown away by the professionalism and range of activities, and all intend to attend next year. Great news that it will be one day longer - we had just got into the swing of things when it was time to go home, so an extra day makes sense. Once again, well done and much appreciated how much time and commitment goes into ensuring the success of Bahar Bayram." Vicki Cooper
"The camp is a magical classroom, great venue".
