The Isle of Man is a small island situated in the Irish Sea. It’s a quite place, with some stunning scenery, it’s shame that all most people who visit will see of it is the ugliest part and capital, Douglas! However even Douglas has a few gems, and near the top amongst these is the Villa Marina.
The Villa Marina complex will be hosting this years Isle of Man Dance Festival, an annual event organised by Ellis Killey of the Killey School of Dancing. Ellis is one of the senior characters in the Manx ballroom dance scene and I can guarantee that you’d be hard pushed to find anybody more passionate about ballroom dancing. The festival takes place this year over the weekend of the 8th and 9th of September and even if you’re not a dancer it is a great opportunity to watch ballroom dancing in one of the great original dance venues.
