AreaDanza

Urban Dance Festival 
#15 edition

The gaze of dance

The fifteenth edition of our urban dance festival stands out for site-specific projects, for the hospitality of emerging and established companies, for opportunities for dialogue on dance and its networks, for community projects and tourism under the sign of choreographic art.
AreaDance is one of the fun forms in which Arearea expresses its ability and passion to inhabit unconventional spaces and to bring dance even to those places, and to those people, who believe that it is an exclusive language. For us, dance is everywhere, and everybody feeds into its contemporary grammar. The Company brings to the festival two research projects in which it is the protagonist: Creative, Local, Dance!, an itinerant path of performances and multimedia storytelling among the Historic Venues and the best craft shops in Venzone and Udine, and Dance Machine, a platform for improvisations and reflections on dance delving deep with partners from national and local networks to discuss new coordinates of a constantly evolving language.
