Artist meetings

During the festival week, you can get up close and personal with the world of dance! Meetings will provide a unique opportunity to hear interesting stories about artists’ careers, their work and projects, and what dance art means to them personally. At the same time, you can learn directly from dance professionals and choreographers about their inspirations, creative process and artistic vision.

The Artist Meetings are a unique opportunity for dance enthusiasts, amateurs and professionals alike to gain valuable insight and inspiration directly from the best in the business.

The artists’ meetings will take place in the Dance Pavilion immediately after the Savonia stage programme from 12 pm-13 pm.
