Julidans
Julidans, the international festival of contemporary dance, is internationally renowned for its unusual and daring dance programming. The festival likes to look across borders. Literally: to dance makers from other countries and (dance) cultures. And figuratively: to different approaches to dance. At the festival, you will discover works of both world-famous and notorious choreographers in a broad programme at various locations across the city, with Internationaal Theater Amsterdam as the festival heart. Julidans is the festival that inspires connoisseurs and curious minds alike.
JULIDANS 2025
We live in a time of profound transformation, these are uncertain times in which many feel vulnerable. We wonder about the future and how we relate to a new reality. In the search for meaning and footing, the connecting role of art is needed more than ever. Dance enables us to feel and think along with someone else. It is an art form that transcends boundaries and connects us. Using the creative body as a common instrument, dance can express the essence of being human, bring us together and offer comfort. In a search for inner strength, dance offers a way out, a way to come to ourselves. The conclusion? Never stop dancing.
