Ojai, CA – Feb 20, 2024. Dance Ojai, a newly established dance arts organization, proudly announces the inaugural Ojai World Dance Festival, celebrating cultural diversity and artistic creativity. The festival will take place on Saturday, April 20th, 2024, from 7-9 PM at the iconic Libbey Bowl in Ojai, California.
The Ojai World Dance Festival promises to be a mesmerizing evening of vibrant and magnetic multicultural dance performances featuring highly acclaimed artists from around southern California.

Whether it’s the infectious grooves of Bollywood or the pulsating rhythms of salsa, the music at the Ojai World Dance Festival will transport audiences on a journey around the world through sound and movement.
According to Isha Nager, Founder and Artistic Director of Dance Ojai: “This production is a testament to our commitment to celebrate diversity within the performing arts and honor our world traditions. We believe in the power of dance to unite people, and elevate our society’s cultural fabric which I think is so important in this time where there is so much worldwide turmoil and division. Through this festival, we aim to showcase the incredible talent of our southern California dance community while fostering a sense of connection and belonging among our audiences. All of our traditions are beautiful and all of them need to be celebrated now more than ever.”
