Represent your country in the... Shows of Nations

Moving away from the conventional competition format, the Shows of Nations at the Bachata Geneva Festival will be a unique showcase for show groups on Friday night.

This special event will feature distinct show groups, including men’s, ladies’, both and mixed couples’ groups, with each group representing a different nation, that will battle for the award of “Winning Nation” in The Festival of Nations.
