A cross-section of what is currently relevant in international contemporary dance and performance. The Julidans main programme
takes place around Leidseplein, in the venues of Internationaal Theater Amsterdam and Theater Bellevue. Get inspired by performances by leading choreographers from all over the world.

During the festival, you will encounter the Julidans choreographers everywhere in town. In Podium Mozaiek, Meervaart, W139 and Frascati, we present dance by idiosyncratic choreographers from home and abroad. But we look beyond regular stages - you will also see performances in the Stedelijk Museum, the Sloterpark swimming pool or hidden in underground cellars throughout the city. Will you join us on a discovery trip?

Fans and passers-by’s will encounter the striking statements of dance makers in the open air during Julidans. This accessible and inspiring programme can be found on Amsterdam's squares, along a route straight through the city and at the Vondelpark Openluchttheater. The performances are mostly free of charge and will surprise dance connoisseurs and newbies alike: Let's go outside!

Julidans NEXT is the platform for a new generation of choreographers with a highly personal signature and distinct vision. Discover the talent of the future on various Julidans stages.

Julidans mainly shows international choreographers, but also shows dance makers from our home country. In Julidans NL, we present Dutch dance productions. The performances are interwoven throughout the programme and of course accessible for the Julidans audience.
