About the event
Lace up those skates because we're thrilled to announce Roller Dance Australia's second Sun Skate Rollerskating Festival!
Sun Skate 2023 was a day of connection and fun on wheels, and this year it's no different!
We will offer a full day of roller skating vibes. The event will feature family friendly events (kids class, outdoor skating workshop and family disco) and adults only beginner and roller dance class, followed by an adult's disco.🤩
Whether you're a beginner taking your first steps or an experienced skater looking to show off your moves, Sun Skate 2024 welcomes skaters of all abilities.
The day will start off with an introduction to outdoor skating workshop with guest host and a kids beginner class and our family fun disco hosted by Susie Q.
After a short lunch break for all of us, we will have a special adults beginner's class conducted by Sofi Cherchyk from The Roller Skating Academy.
An intermediate roller dance class will follow the beginner's class. For this class, skaters are expected to have intermediate skills in roller dance. We will be led in a special choreography by Sofi Cherchyk from The Roller Skating Academy. At 5pm, the venue turns info our Adult's Retro Roller Disco were we will celebrate the energy that roller skating brings into our lives!
