02
Before
registration opens

03

opens May 22, 2026
Book your ticket
Use the registration link at the top of this page — or let your registration partner do it for you. Either works.
04
immediately
after submitting
Receive your confirmation email
You’ll get an email confirming we received your registration. Every incoming solo registration (except for Joker registrations) first appears with the status “Waitlist” in your danceapp account until we pair you up with someone from the opposite role – that is normal. 
Couple registrations are automatically admitted. We also send you the booking code for the hotel in the confirmation email.
05
when we
coupled you up
Waitlisted? We approve you like this
A second email lands in your inbox when we coupled you up with someone from the opposite role, securing your spot for Cologne Calling. We will also send you the booking code for the hotel once your registration is approved.
Check your status anytime
Your registration status is always visible in your danceapp account.
don't book travels yet!
Wait until your place is officially secured before booking flights or accommodation.
pick your role

lead, follow
or both

L
leader
Register as a leader and you’ll dance the leader role in workshops and majority of the socials.

Signing up with a partner maximizes your chance to get your registration approved, avoiding landing on the waiting list (unless the event is sold out).
F
Follower
Register as a follower and you’ll dance the follower role in workshops and majority of the socials.

Signing up with a partner maximizes your chance to get your registration approved, avoiding landing on the waiting list (unless the event is sold out).
J
JOKER

Equally comfortable in either role? Sign up as Joker — we’ll ask you to dance whichever role is needed in the workshop you’re attending.

Your workshop level in your main role will be determined by your WSDC points status or audition. If the role balance requires, we can ask you to dance your secondary role in the same workshop. 

You have to sign up solo with the “Full Pass (Joker)” pass type, it is not possible to sign up with a partner. You will be automatically admitted to the event, without waiting list
what do i need to know?

registration
rules

general
before you begin
You’ll need an account on danceapp.net to register. Sign up early — don’t wait until the doors open
Once your spot is confirmed, payment must be settled within 14 days of acceptance
COUPLES
couple registrations
Couple registrations enjoy priority — we strongly encourage signing up with a partner
Both partners must register for the same pass type (Full or Party). Full Pass partners do not have to be from the same workshop level.
Only one dancer from the couple registers, selecting the partner’s name during the process
Both dancers must already have danceapp accounts!
Both will receive email notifications, and payment can be settled separately
SOLO
solo registrations
Solo registrations are placed on the waiting list (unless you register in Joker role) until we match them with someone from the opposite role to keep balance
We’ll do our best to let you in — and you can help by having a friend who registers later add your name. You’re then admitted automatically (unless we’ve already sold out)
FREE PASSES
free pass holders
Free pass holders still need to register, with indicating where they won the pass in the comment field during the registration
Free pass holders have to register with the solo registration option, cannot be part of couple registration
Your place at the event is guaranteed, regardless of when you register
Free passes are Party Passes and can be upgraded to Full Pass for 50€. Add a comment in the form during registration, or message us afterwards
Wanna stay with party pass? Register with the “Party Pass” ticket type!
