Beautiful and colourful Polynesian dancers were joined by ballet, flamenco, tap and ballroom and many other flavours of dance as they performed on the covered stage across from the Eaton Centre. The participating stars and dance companies included the National Ballet of Canada Principal Dancers Guillanune Cote and Heather Ogden, the Ritmo Flamenco Dance and Music Ensemble, Allison Toffan: tap dancer, a dancer from ‘Billy Elliot’, Universal Vibes: deaf signing and dance, Sanskriti Arts Ensemble, Polynesian Dream, Little Pear Garden Collective, Jasmyn Fyffe Dance and the Rainbow Ballroom of Toronto.

The Rainbow Ballroom (LGBTT and Straight friendly) dancers came out mixed and when the music started they went to same sex teams which the was very popular with the crowd.
