The finals also include the judging of the boys competition, Dance Master UK, and the International Ballet Championships.
Entrants who wish to compete in the national finals of Miss Dance, must first qualify for the competition by winning a regional heat.
The majority of these festivals are independently run and must apply to the IDTA in order to stage a heat of Miss Dance.
The national finals of Miss Dance are organised by the IDTA and are held annually at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool.
This narrows down the number of competitors to a selection of finalists, who then perform again for the judges in the grand final and the winner of the Miss Dance title is awarded.
