21.01.2022 The 90's We move to Brisbane in the 90s where dancers from AIDA Queensland are about to show us how Irish Dancing changed during that exciting decade. The 1990s... were Australia's Irish Dance boom time. Around the globe, Irish Dance shows began hitting the world stage, while at home in Australia, the Wiggles also began featuring Irish Dance in videos and at concerts. Irish Dance seemed to be everywhere and Australian kids jumped on board. Arguably one of the biggest influences of change in Irish Dancing in Australia during the 1990s was the birth of Irish Dance shows. Through the interval act of the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest, "Riverdance" introduced the world at large to Irish Dance and the phenomena of Irish Dance shows was born. To have so many Australian Irish Dancers featured in all the major dance shows performing around the world is testament to the teachers and dancers of Australia who have and continue to produce a community of world-class performers.
