What is CataLANDance?

CataLANDance is a network of professionals and institutions dedicated to producing and promoting contemporary Catalan dance, and strengthening its international presence.

The platform aims to consolidate itself as a space for connection and growth, based on three key areas: facilitating encounters with international festivals and institutions, promoting the long-term international projection of Catalan companies, and ensuring the sector’s diversity is widely represented – effectively becoming a tool that serves the sector. The project will connect emerging and established talent with the world, bridging the gap between micro and macro, and between the present and future of Catalan dance.

Now is the time to act with foresight, creativity and determination, in order to place contemporary Catalan dance at the heart of the cultural debates that are shaping the artistic landscape in Europe and around the world.
