On 8 June 2016, it was announced that the inaugural ABU International Dance Festival will take place in Hyderabad, India.[1] The festival was originally going to be held in New Delhi, but was later changed to a new host city and the festival dates subsequently changed.[2] India was chosen by the ABU to host the first edition, as the nation has a history of cultural dance. India has several festivals with a dance and cultural background, and so the ABU selected the country to host so that they could showcase their expertise and achieve the goals of the festival organisation.[3]
