Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance, one of the most popular dance shows in the world, celebrates its 25th anniversary in the Pick Aréna in Szeged on Saturday, May 14.

On the occasion of the important anniversary, the dance troupe embarks on a special European tour, including five cities in Hungary too.

"For 25 years, Michael Flatley’s Lord of the Dance has dazzled audiences around the world with its unique combination of high-energy Irish dancing, original music, storytelling and sensuality. Our beloved Irish dance show transcends culture and language, soaring into the soul on astounding aerial moves, unparalleled precision dancing and state-of-the-art theatrical effects." reads the show's website.
