Date: Friday June 7th
Time: 20:00 ST. The dancing itself will begin between 20:30-21:00.
Location: Amirdrassil
Faction: Alliance
Target audience: Night elves, but it’s fine for some of their closest allies such as worgen and dryads to come along. We’re aiming for a kaldorei atmosphere and thus characters that are in tune with their way of life.
Similar to the previous Kaldorei Dance Nights and the dances at the Alor’el Spring Festival (as well as the dances I organized at the Lakeshire Dance Night & Gilneas Masquerade Ball), the event features guided choreographies that include movement and emotes. They’re instructed step by step, and meant to be easy to follow along without practice. There’ll be 3 different choreographies.
The emotes used in the choreographies will be written in CAPS, for example: “One step forward! CLAP!” The dances are designed to be done with a dance partner, but don’t worry - we’ll try match people up should they be missing someone to dance with. The dance partner roles won’t be gendered.
To help imagine the characters dancing, Watch2Gether website will be used for synchronous background music that will be played by NPCs In-Character. It’ll make things more atmospheric and immersive when you can hear the tempo and spirit of the songs used for the dances! Link will be provided closer to the event.
There’ll be three dances (the specific dances may yet change):
- Faerie Circle (performed at the Alor’el Spring Festival)
- Fan Dance
- Night Chase (performed at the Alor’el Spring Festival)
You can see bits of Faerie Circle and Night Chase on video here. A dance or two may be performed on shimmering water this time.
Now that many people are familiar with this type of activity, the moves will be instructed at a tiny bit faster pace, but they should still be pretty easy to follow along without former experience.
- Please bring/transmog an in-game fan item for your character! It will be used in the fan dance. Some people were inspired to visualize their fan designs for a previous dance event, and you’re more than welcome to do so again! You can check this post for inspiration.
- Please also bring Enchanted Lantern (pet) to create a further magical ambience! We have a number of them to distribute at the event if you’re missing one.

The dancing will begin after 20:30 server time. There’ll be preliminary drinks and snacks. In case of sharding and to share some OOC instructions, there’ll be a raid group for the event. You’re welcome to whisper Acrona 19:45 onwards for an invite!
There’ll be an optional opportunity to perform on the water pool when we do the fan dance. We’ll provide water walking elixirs for it. If you feel bold enough to try this thoroughly sparkling experience, piece of advice not to have your camera angled too down if you’re used to mouse press to control movement/turns!
The event is Alliance only, aimed at night elves, though some of their allies such as worgen and dryads that work closely with them are also welcome to participate.
