THE region's up and coming dancers have taken centre stage this weekend at the opening of the first Darling Downs Eisteddfod.
Teams from Toowoomba's Dance Central were among those who headed to the Millmerran Cultural Centre on Saturday and Sunday for the competition.
Dance Central Velocity artistic director Bec Phillips said they had more than 30 children and teens perform over the two days.
"They really enjoyed it, it's the first eisteddfod that we have had the chance to do all year with everything going on," Ms Phillips said.
"It was nice for them to be able to get on stage and do the routines they've been working on."
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, parents and teachers are not allowed to watch group performances inside the building - however, they could stream them from outside.
"They did set up some Zoom links so people could watch," Ms Phillips said.
"Parents were in the car having a watch.
"With our juniors on Sunday, they sat under a tree a distance apart from one another - and when we exited they were all cheering outside for us."
Dance Central's junior and senior teams enjoyed success in the first few days of competition.
The senior team in the jazz open group got a highly commended for their first dance and a third place for their second, also placing second in the any other dance section.
The junior team entered the contemporary 12 and under and the jazz 12 and under sections and received second place and a highly commended consecutively.
