Dublin Dance Festival is a creative catalyst, bringing outstanding dance to audiences. The core reason the organisation exists is to bring the best international dance to Irish audiences of all ages and backgrounds, and to create opportunities for Irish dance artists, through programming, commissioning and partnerships.
During the Festival, the finest international choreographers and dance companies are programmed alongside emerging and established artists from Ireland and abroad in a variety of venues and spaces around the city. Audience members can look forward to experiencing celebrated classics and discovering the freshest talents each year through a stimulating programme of performances, outdoor events, workshops, discussions, symposia, film screenings and more.
