Join us Friday - for a celebration of community
It's not often you can see performances by our Winnipeg Ukrainian dance companies and schools take the same stage - all while supporting humanitarian aid in Ukraine through the Ukrainian Canadian Congress.

Don't miss out seeing our little Pershyy Krok dancers, our Radist' ladies and Julianna A (awarded most promising female soloist) , along with Sopilka Alumni performing with their current ensembles!
We hope to see you there!

❤️Why we dance. Why we gather.

The Showcase & Benefit Concert is more than a performance— it’s a celebration of culture, community, and connection.

Every step, every costume, and every moment on stage represents generations of tradition and passion.

This year, your support goes even further.

All net proceeds will support humanitarian aid in Ukraine through the Ukrainian Canadian Congress🇺🇦

Happy International Day of Dance! 🩰✨

Today, we join the world in celebrating the universal language of movement, but we’re doing it with a special Sopilka flair! 🇺🇦

From the first steps of our youngest dancers to the gravity-defying leaps of our seniors, dance is more than just a performance for us—it’s how we honor our heritage, share our stories, and keep the vibrant spirit of Ukraine alive.

Whether it’s the precision of a Poltava, the energy of a Hopak, or the grace of a lyrical piece, our dancers pour their hearts onto the stage every single time they put on their boots.

To our incredible dancers, dedicated instructors, and supportive families: thank you for keeping our culture dancing!

Keep spinning, keep leaping, and keep shining. 💃🕺
