Connect with heritage
Each year, the festival presents an overview of the current state of Dutch dance, in performances, debates, exhibitions and other events. This means that looking back on any one edition is a useful tool for understanding how the sector is evolving.
Moreover, the annual festival program says something not only about the state of Dutch dance, but also about the changing socio-cultural dynamics in the Netherlands. The programs provide insight into our collective cultural identity and shifting socio-political values.
