World Ballet Day on Wednesday 12 November 2025 is the global celebration of dance where artists and audiences are invited to experience ballet in new transformative ways as access becomes art.

The Royal Ballet in London will be streaming a programme of dance which will have at its heart a brand-new six minute work curated and conceived by choreographer and Artistic Director of Fall for Dance North Festival Robert Binet, in collaboration with blind artist and assistant professor of Disability Studies Devon Healey, who’s Immersive Descriptive Audio will take people into the inner world of dance through sensation, sound and storytelling.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey caught up with Devon and Rob to find out more about World Ballet Day 2025 and their collaborative work for the Royal Ballet which will be streamed as part of the celebrations on the day.
