I love GPS. For me experience rhis year was better than the trial event, which shows organizers attention and effort to improve. 🙌 Way more participants this year, which was great; yet sometimes I struggled to find a leader at parties, so maybe the role balance could be slightly better. I absolutely loved the MC, would love to see him doing that at more events! Nice quiet location next to the forest, yet perfectly conected with the airport by metro, and there's everything you need around, from "Happy' restaurant that eeveeryonee loves, to pharmacies and groceries. Hotel is super adorable with nice breakfast, the best value for money you can ever find at event! What I don't like at any event is having early classes, I was looking forward to learn from Larisa and Za, but it was so early I couldn't make myself get up, and then I heard it was amazing 😭 (I know I probably should have gone to bad at 5am previous night,🙄 but caffeine hit, and hey, isn't that this event of 'Grand parties' that I migh wanted to experience fully? 👉👈) Anyway, it was a great event, with amazingly friendly volunteers, and atmosphere and I will keep coming back!

GPS was a wonderful and friendly WCS event. It was well organized- as a new attendee I would not have guessed this was only their second year. The free walking tour of Sofia on Friday morning was a fun and interesting option. The hand-made friendship bracelets for the different workshop levels were a nice touch. (and even glowed in the dark) An upgrade for this year was a new WSDC-compliant dance floor installed over the marble floor in the ballroom which was very nice for dancing. GPS‘s 90 minute workshops format is now my preference, and I wish all events would go to this format. The pros were all very good and spent a fair amount of time on the dance floor during the socials, too. The hotel is three stars, so manage your expectations as there was a limited variety of fruits and vegetables at the breakfast buffet. (Tomatoes, cucumbers, black olives and either apples or watermelon). The Happy restaurant across the street from the hotel had a large menu of inexpensive and tasty meals and was well-attended by dancers. Saturday dinner between competition rounds we almost filled it! Friday competition is high-low icebreaker instead of Strictly, and I found that great fun. And they had Masters as well as Sophisticated JnJs. Danny and team, thank you so much, looking forward to next year!

This was a fun, cozy event with great dancing, DJs, and was an overall wonderful experience. There were a lot of extra followers on the sides during the parties and no size small shirts for men. I'd also appreciate more fans and airflow for next year.

Nice and cozy event with good schedule, free city tour, games, lovely community, many competition opportunities, good floor and music, even celebrates birthdays, provides snacks during socials, has a nice restaurant nearby. Definitely recommend it if you have the chance to visit 😉
