Its so precious that Vienna has at least one wsdc event as a nice city to visit with nice community, and this event is located in the heart of Vienna, the best possible location in city, well connected with transport, in historical and nice building. Still some building features wasn't the best match for the dancing event: it was too hot during the parties, way too crowded even though there are two smaller rooms next to the main one, and the floor was sticky. During the comps I couldn't see my 3rd partner properly because the daylight was directly going in my eyes since there were no windows shutters. Still I felt the effort and love from the organization, logistics were going well, good social media, nice theme party with involving activities for participants and good staff. I would love to visit it again 💟

I really enjoyed this event overall. The location was absolutely beautiful and set a great atmosphere for the whole experience. It’s situated in a great area with plenty of nice places to eat nearby, which made everything even more enjoyable. The event itself felt cozy and welcoming, and there were many amazing dancers attending — the level and energy were truly inspiring. That said, there were a few issues that affected the experience. The venue was unfortunately too small for the number of participants. The dance floor was overcrowded, making it difficult to actually dance comfortably. In addition, there was no air conditioning, and the lack of proper ventilation made it quite hot and uncomfortable at times. I understand that many events in Europe take place in similar venues, but this space didn’t feel well-suited for such a large crowd. Another challenge was the leader/follower balance at the party. The ratio didn’t feel very even, and at times it was difficult to find someone to dance with. Overall, I still consider my experience positive thanks to the atmosphere and the people. I’m planning to come back next year and hope that the space, ventilation, and balance issues will be improved, because this event definitely has great potential.

The venue was much too small for the number of participants, which caused some challenges during classes. Teachers had to adjust their planned programs on the spot because there simply wasn’t enough space to dance—quick thinking on their part turned a class into pre-competition practice instead of what was actually planned. I felt bad for them, and several people I know chose not to attend certain classes after seeing how crowded it was. Even with fewer participants in class, the space still felt tight, which affected the overall vibe, as it seemed some attendees were frustrated with this issue.

It's a nice event. Space was a constrain but other than that, everything was on time.

Great event: very good atmosphere; for sure the best music selection comparing to other events I've visited so far; event site looks amazing and is very cozy; great location in the city centre as well, close to everything. Definitely looking forward to come back next year. Some setbacks: main dancefloor got extremely crowded during "rush hour"; seemed that there's been more followers than leaders, some followers struggled during workshops.
