Albanian-American Dancer Tony Dovolani Receives the 2024 John Monte Award

Share

Tony Dovolani, the Albanian-American dancer celebrated for his two-decade run on the hit show Dancing with the Stars, has received the esteemed John Monte Award for 2024. The award, one of the highest honors in American ballroom dance, is presented annually by the United States Dance Championships (USDC) to acknowledge exceptional contributions to the dance industry.

USDC organizers emphasized the significance of this award, named after John Monte, a foundational figure in American ballroom. John Monte is remembered for his legacy in U.S. dance and as the only American to receive the prestigious Carl-Alan Award in 1974—an accolade honoring outstanding contributions to British dance and entertainment. Each year, the John Monte Award recognizes those who embody his commitment to excellence on and off the dance floor.

Dovolani took to social media to express his gratitude: “Words cannot describe how honored and how much this award means to me! So grateful to be the recipient of this year’s John Monte Award!” This achievement marks another high point in his career, reaffirming his legacy in the American dance scene.
