Congrats to everyone involved, and those that continued a legacy of Irish dancing in QLD. IASAQ were delighted to celebrate this milestone with you all. However, we stayed away from the dance floor, when the room is full of professional dancers you know you can’t compete 😂

Comhghairdeachas to AIDA Queensland who celebrated 50 years of #irishdancing in Queensland at their Gala Ball last night. Formed in 1973, the first offical Irish Dancing Queensland State Championships were held at the Ascot State School in 1974.
