FRESH 2026 Matinee
This year Yorkshire Dance’s annual youth dance festival, FRESH, is coming to Leeds on Saturday 18 April 2026.
Youth dance groups from every corner of Yorkshire, with members aged between 11 and 19, will perform live or show their screen dance.
You can expect high quality dance routines showcasing anything from contemporary to street dance (and everything in between).
During the day all youth groups performing come together at FRESH workshops to rehearse a group routine which they will perform on the night as a grand finale.
