A New Era of Global Collaboration in Performance & Adjudication
The British & International Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and Speech (BIFF) and the Australian Dance Adjudicators (ADA) are proud to announce an exciting affiliation, bringing together two respected organisations dedicated to fostering excellence in performance and adjudication.
By affiliating, we are strengthening opportunities for performers, adjudicators, and festival organisers across the UK, Australia, and beyond. This collaboration enhances professional development, increases visibility for our members, and promotes shared knowledge—all while keeping our fundamental focus on putting performance first.
Together, we are building a global network that supports artistic excellence, provides valuable opportunities for industry professionals, and celebrates the joy of performance.
