Open Your Mind x ND
Finals

Don’t miss the international talent in this experimental hip-hop battle!

The packed programme in the dance tent will also feature hip-hop talent from all over the world. The OYM x ND battle is an experimental hip-hop battle in which twelve dancers from diverse backgrounds compete against one another, with everything revolving around creativity, daring and reacting in the moment. All styles are welcome. The dancers perform close to the audience, with the judges and visitors surrounding the stage. This means you’ll be right in the thick of the energy, excitement and exchange of talent in every round.

This special edition of the international, touring Open Your Mind event has been tailor-made for the Nederlandse Dansdagen. Round after round, dancers are eliminated until one winner remains and takes home the top prize of €1,000.

Would you like to experience the whole journey? Come along to the preliminary rounds between 12.00 and 13.30 and see live how this edition’s top 12 are decided. Want to experience for yourself what it’s like to take part in a battle? Then sign up for the free workshop in the Danstent from 13.30 to 14.30.

This programme is a collaboration between the Dutch Dance Days and Stichting Sample Culture.
