Harlequin Liberty dance floor on Big Dance tour

Big Dance 2012 and the Big Red Bus, now touring various London venues, plus some in the Midlands, is taking along a Harlequin Liberty sprung dance floor. 

As part of the Cultural Olympiad the Big Dance Bus tour is “set to get everyone dancing this summer.” It will be stopping at shopping centres, squares and parks, plus a few famous London locations – “anywhere where there are people who might be in need of some fun and dancing.” The Big Dance Bus will host a multitude of dance styles and activity, from street to folk via contemporary and tango. “The Big Dance Bus brings its own resident dance company and presents a mixture of performances from local acts and schools to professional. plus the opportunity to join free workshops in swing, folk, hip hop hula and Zumba®. 

On tour with the Big Dance Bus and provided by British Harlequin, is 100m² of Harlequin Liberty™ sprung dance floor. Liberty is a floating floor system composed of sprung floor panels, which can be quickly latched together, then covered with a Harlequin Cascade™ dance surface to create a professional quality sprung floor at each of the 30 venues on the seven week tour. 

The iconic red double-decker London Routemaster bus is described by the organisers as “the ultimate pop up ballroom and ready-made rave... complete with it its own dance-floor, pumping sound system, compere and DJ - perfect for showcases, portable raves and impromptu dance offs.”
