Gympie Eisteddfod dancers

Day three of Gympie Eisteddfod focused on growing and showcasing some of the young talented dancers of the region.

Backstage was awash with nerves, glittery costumes and last minute practices as the dancers prepared for their moment on stage in front of the adjudicators.

Parents and coaches made their way nervously to the seats as their daughters prepared to go on stage.

Gympie Eisteddfod runs throughout the week at the Pavillion and finishes up on Friday, August 4, 2023.

See the photos from Sunday afternoon:
