For one thrilling night, some of the world's best belly-dancers and their midriffs come together for a special performance. Professional and amateur dancers take the stage to showcase their skills, accompanied by what the event calls "the hottest Middle Eastern music this side of the Black Sea." A panel of distinguished judges determines who takes home top honors. Between numbers, guests can peruse a selection of wares including jewelry, dance fashions, and décor, pay a trip to the bar for a glass of wine, or take turns guessing who the surprise celebrity guest dancer will be.
