It is with deep sadness that we regret to inform you that Ultimate Performer will no longer be taking place. Circumstances beyond the control of Performance Platform have resulted in the dissolution of the organisation and the cancellation of the event.
We have had the most incredible 9 years watching your talents grow and enjoying the performing arts in a way that allowed you all to shine and experiment and simply enjoy being a performer. We thank our loyal supporters and friends who have supported this event for many years and we are sorry that it will not continue. We are so grateful to the amazing sponsors like Vincent Park who was part of the event every one of the nine years and to the Daily Dispatch and Go! and Express who were incredible media partners in the past few years. We deeply appreciate your support. Thank you to PnA Stationers East London who took us to unimaginable places and grew the event even more with their generous financial support and assistance. To the schools, studios, judges, trainers and every single parent, child or performer we have met along the way...Thank you for believing in and sharing our dream for a magical showcase of talent. The past 9 years were a gift and we will miss you all. From Zeni Dwight Nerina and Anne to all of you...we hope you continue to dance and sing, shine and sparkle and stay in touch as you do. Neil and Ashley from the original organisation...thank you for starting this incredible journey with us 9 years ago. Ultimate Performer and Performance Platform was one of the best parts of our lives and some of our proudest accomplishments.
We hope you enjoyed the journey as much as we did.




Please feel free to post your photos and memories of the past 9 years...we are all mourning the loss of a beautiful adventure we shared with so many.
