AQUALILLIES EXPAND TO CALGARY AND VANCOUVER

It’s a throwback to the Hollywood glamour of the 1940’s: a time when the swimming pool was a stage. Fast forward 70 years later and a group called the Aquallilies is resurrecting that notion. The group of synchronized swimmers are hired to perform at pool parties, private events or anywhere that needs a little cheeky sex appeal. Their retro swimsuits, bathing caps and old Hollywood glamour use the pool as a stage and are often referred to as “underwater rockettes”.

The Toronto Aqualillies debuted last summer, joining teams in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York and Miami. Made up of former competitive synchronized swimmers, the performance combines dance, athleticism and performance. They have starred in music videos for Justin Bieber, fashion campaigns for CHANEL and graced magazines worldwide.
