Announcing the CANDY BOX Lucky Draw Raffle

“Share a dance favorite. Celebrate artistry. Win a little something sweet.”

As part of ARENA DANCES’ CANDY BOX Dance Festival, we invite you to share a dance memory that has stayed with you—a performer who moved you, a choreographer who inspired you, or a production you’ve never forgotten.

These memories are the heartbeat of our community—and we want to celebrate them. Let’s cheer one another on—uplifting and honoring the passion, dedication, and artistry that keep dance alive in our community.

Submit your nominations online here starting now or in the Southern Theater lobby during the festival. Each evening of the Featured Artists performances, May 7-9, entries will be placed into three categories: Performer, Choreographer, and Production. One from each will be randomly drawn and announced live just before each performance.

Join us in honoring the artists and moments that have shaped the Minnesota dance landscape—and you might just walk away with a special CANDY BOX prize.

Submit online now here (closes Saturday, May 9 at 12:00pm CST). Submit in person in the Southern Theater lobby each night before house opens. Live drawings nightly, just before each featured artist performance (May 7–9).
