Call for dancers and athletes for Delhi 2010

GLASGOW 2014 LAUNCHES SEARCH FOR DANCERS AND ATHLETES FROM ACROSS SCOTLAND TO TAKE PART IN DELHI 2010 HANDOVER CEREMONY

Glasgow 2014 has launched the second phase of the search for hundreds of people from across Scotland to perform in the Delhi 2010 Handover Ceremony, and is now inviting trained dancers and athletes to come forward to be part of the performance.

To get a glimpse of Handover Ceremony excitement click here, and see Delhi 2010's Handover Ceremony at the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games.

Last week, Glasgow 2014 announced funding for 96 Scots with no previous dance or drama experience to perform at the Handover Ceremony, to rehearse and perform alongside dancers and athletes who are now being recruited for this once in a lifetime opportunity.

The Handover Ceremony marks the Flag Handover from Delhi to Glasgow, and includes an 8 minute creative performance to showcase Glasgow and Scotland to the rest of the world. The performance, which will involve a mass choreographed dance routine, will take place in the spectacular Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium and will host a capacity crowd of 60,000 for the Closing Ceremony. It will be beamed live across the Commonwealth to an estimated audience of 1 billion people. For more information for you or a friend download a poster.

To be part of this historic event, trained dancers and athletes will need a nomination from their coach or accredited organisation to support their application, and fund raise to pay for their rehearsals, accommodation and travel.
