Pointe Shoe Fund
Keep Our Dancers on Their Toes
Every year, The National Ballet of Canada relies on our community of supporters to help provide pointe shoes for our dancers to rehearse and perform and you can help!
Pointe shoes are more than just footwear – they are essential to so many of ballet's breathtaking moments. Their use defines and extends the vocabulary of classical dance and have become an iconic foundation of the artform.
The National Ballet supplies up to 3,000 pairs of pointe shoes for our dancers over eleven months of company activity. Each custom-made pair costs $125.
