Are you a dance lover? Are you interested in digital developments and new technology? Do you want to contribute to the online future of Nederlandse Dansdagen? For the Denktank Digitaal we are looking for co-thinkers from November 2023 - October 2024.

Our Mission

Nederlandse Dansdagen is an organisation dedicated to Dutch dance. The highlight is an annual festival in and from Maastricht. During the first week of October, a range of dance performances and the best of Dutch dance is shown: from "classical" to "urban" from "avant-garde" to "modern dance. Nederlandse Dansdagen aims to make the voice of dance and the dance artist louder. In addition, Nederlandse Dansdagen deploys the power of dance to set society in motion around social issues; it challenges people to think, talk, discuss and act.

Who are we looking for?

During the 2024 festival, Nederlandse Dansdagen will launch an online environment.
