If 1996 was the start point of this event, it certainly has never stopped growing in numbers attending every year and the CBAs stature is now bigger than we ever dreamt it would become.

Seen worldwide as a celebration of the best of the best Line dance has to offer the CBA is now a world class event and its USP still as valid as it ever was. Put simply, the CBA is a universal weekend event with the Line dance Oscars at its heart.

So what can a guest hope for at the CBA? The fun starts straight away as soon as you step foot within the Norbreck Castle in Blackpool.

Over the years, many people have asked why the CBA is held there and the answer is always SIZE.

With the main events room more akin to a plane hangar and the fact that it can hold 1000 guests at least plus our huge production crew in one space simply means that the hotel is a natural home for dance events, CBA included.
