Brno – The World Latin Dance Championships, scheduled for October 18, 2025, at Brno's Starez Arena, promises to be an exceptional experience, not just for sports dance fans.
Three winners of the popular StarDance TV show will come together in one place to celebrate the beauty of Latin dance. In addition to top competition performances, the audience can look forward to exclusive performances, moderation by famous faces, and a rich accompanying program.
Veronika Lálová: Brazilian Samba
The highlight of the evening will be the performance by Veronika Lálová, who won the 7th season of StarDance with Zdeněk Piškula in 2016.
Veronika will dance the iconic Brazilian samba at the World Championships.
„Dancing with Zdeněk Piškula was one of the greatest experiences of my career, and when the offer came to dance my beloved samba at the World Championships, I didn't hesitate for a minute,“ says Veronika Lálová, who has been a professional dancer, choreographer, and judge since StarDance.
Jan Onder as a presenter: two-time winner and dance scene stalwart
Jan Onder, who won StarDance twice – in 2008 with Dana Batulkova and two years later with Kateřina Baďurova, will guide the audience through the evening. He has subsequently worked as a coach, judge, choreographer, and presenter.
Onder, who will be standing alongside another ‚Stardance TV participant, Kamila Tománková, is known for his natural charm, sense of humor, and deep knowledge of the dance environment, so expect not only an engaging host but also an insider’s view behind the scenes of the championship.
„I look forward to being part of such a special event. The World Latin Championships is not only a sporting competition, but also a celebration of movement, rhythm, and human expression,“ said Jan Onder. „Moreover, I will meet great colleagues with whom we share not only dance but also friendship.“
Dominika Rošková – Championship Ambassador and Winner of Slovakia's Let's Dance
The third winning face who will appear at the event is Dominika Rošková, a professional dancer who shone in Slovakia this year. Together with her partner, she dominated the latest series of Let’s Dance, the Slovak version of StarDance, and impressed the audience not only with her technique but also with her distinctive charisma.
At the World Championships in Brno, Dominika will serve as an official ambassador, which includes representing the event in the media, participating in accompanying activities, and also supporting young dancers.
„It's an honor and a joy for me. Dance is my life, and to be part of such a prestigious international championship is a dream come true. I believe that the event in Brno will be an inspiration for thousands of people – not only for the dancers but also for the public, who may fall in love with dance thanks to it,“ said Rošková.
World competition and cultural event of the year in Brno
The World Latin Dance Championships will attract the best couples from more than 40 countries to Brno. Five traditional dances will be competed in: samba, cha-cha, rumba, paso doble, and jive.
The organizers expect thousands of spectators and believe the event will contribute not only to the popularization of sports dance but also to strengthening Brno's cultural prestige as a host city.
