The World Tap Dance Championships move to the WM (World Masters) Sporthalle Riesa!

Realizing that the Town Hall STERN was too small, Riesa’s Mayor Wolfram Kohler moved the Championships to the WM- Sporthalle Riesa, which had a much larger capacity for seating and the dance area was much more adequate. The motto of the WM-Sporthalle Riesa is: "World Champions Are Created Here." The spectators and dancers were both pleased with this new venue and all agreed that the skill and performance level of all dancers were shown at their best in this new facility 17
