The DC Tap Festival, presented by the Chloé and Maud Foundation, is the largest tap festival in the world! This annual event offers master dance classes, a filmmaking workshop, panel discussions, dance battles, jam sessions and entrepreneurship courses.
Our mission is to inspire and unite tap dancers and dance lovers from around the world, and together, heighten the global respect and appreciation for the rich American art form of tap dance. We welcome all people, regardless of economic status, age, gender, artistic or cultural background. The DC Tap Fest is a haven for the creative and artistic process, and fosters the growth of the next generation of artists, entrepreneurs and world changers.
