The Britannia
Dinner & Dance
Two evenings of fabulous dancing, dining and entertainment.
Friday 12 & Saturday 13 February 2027
Hilton at the Utilita Bowl · Southampton
Friday School Disco Party · Saturday Black Tie Gala
Two Nights to Remember
Join James and Kelly Prouton for two evenings that bring the Britannia family together, with dinner, championship finals, VIP ProAm shows and plenty to celebrate.
Friday: The School Disco Party
Start the weekend with our playful school disco theme, sharing platters of starters and mains, and an evening of exciting dancing. Enjoy ProAm Grand Finals, VIP ProAm shows and the Professional Ballroom and Latin Championships. Dressing for the theme is encouraged!
Saturday: The Gala Dinner
Dress to impress for our Valentine’s black tie celebration. A welcome drink and three course dinner set the scene for ProAm Grand Finals, VIP ProAm shows, the Amateur All Stars Invitation Competition and world class cabaret.
Seating & Hospitality
Individual dinner seats and tables of ten are available for both nights. Saturday’s VIP tables offer priority placement and include two bottles of wine.
Grand Experience guests have reserved dining seats on both evenings, with priority dining seating included in the Ultimate Experience.
A cash bar is available throughout both evenings. Reception, dinner and performance timings will be published with the final programme.
Celebrating Our ProAm Stars
Britannia began with a simple belief: ProAm dancers deserve to be the stars of the show.
In 2027, that spirit runs through both evening programmes, with World ProAm Dance Cup Grand Finals and VIP ProAm shows bringing our students and their teachers into the spotlight.
Friday’s Grand Finals
International Latin, American Smooth and Argentine Tango.
Saturday’s Grand Finals
International Ballroom, American Rhythm and Caribbean Mix.
As a Double Points event in the World Cup ProAm Series, Britannia also gives competitors the opportunity to earn twice the standard ranking points.
Our VIP ProAm shows offer another opportunity to shine. These featured performances celebrate personality, creativity and the joy of dancing. If you and your teacher would like to share a show with our audience, please get in touch.
