EVENT DESCRIPTION:

The Florence Dance Festival was created with the dual purpose of promoting the art of dance and at the same time contributing to the relaunch, rediscovery and sometimes rebirth of various public places (Anfiteatro delle Cascine, Teatro Romano di Fiesole, Piazzale Michelangelo, Piazza Santissima Annunziata, Courtyard of the Bargello National Museum, Great Cloister of Santa Maria Novella) sharing the pleasure of dance with an increasingly vast and varied audience.

In thirty years of activity, the Festivals have proposed shows of the highest artistic and cultural value with the involvement of world-renowned artists and companies (Maurice Bejart, Merce Cunnignham, Antonio Gades, Ballet of the Teatro San Carlo of Naples, Parsons Dance , Trisha Brown Dance Company, New York City Ballet, Fondazione Nazionale della Danza / Aterballetto, Sankai Juko, Compagnia Zappalà Danza, Nederlands Dance Theater 2-NDT2, Bill T. Jones, Michael Clark Company, Sergei Polunin, Batsheva, Trockadero, Kibbutz) . Furthermore, it promoted and produced shows that valorized young emerging choreographers and dancers with evenings dedicated to new proposals.

All this without losing sight of the involvement and training of an increasingly aware audience through awareness-raising actions on the theme of dance as "total theatre".
