Tapathon 2025
23rd November
Hextable, Kent

We’re proud to be joining the national Tapathon once again in 2025, bringing the Tappers community together to raise money through rhythm.

Why Tapathon?

Tapathon is a nationwide event held in support of BBC Children in Need, where tap dancers of all ages and abilities perform the same routine, at the same time, on the same day.

It’s a brilliant way to feel part of something bigger and connect with dancers across the UK while raising funds for a fantastic cause. Whether you’re taking your first step or your thousandth, you’ll be part of a celebration that’s full of joy, community and purpose.

“An amazing opportunity for the local community to gather together for a common cause. ​

To be honest the breaking of the existing record is secondary to the importance of the social get-together”

“What an amazing achievement.

Tapathon is a regular fixture in our dance calendar and the tappers love it!”

“Our dancers really enjoyed the whole process, and it was great to get so many age groups working together on one, really important, project. ​

Everyone loved their T-shirts and certificates too!”
