The Eurovision Dance Contest was an international ballroom dancing competition organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and the International DanceSport Federation (IDSF).[1] The IDSF credits the existence of the contest to Richard Bunn of RBI network,[2] Geneva, former EBU controller of sport, who convinced the EBU to create the programme.[3]
