Program

JULIDANS 2026: 2-14 JULY

We are proud and delighted to present the program of the 36th edition of Julidans. With honesty and sincerity, choreographers from across the world, established and emerging, make the invisible visible in their latest works. Because dance can give expression to ideas where words fall short: about love, beauty, grief, origin and connection.

-|-Below you will find the program. A mix of stunning, raw, energetic and musical performances: Straight from the Heart. The presale is now open for our most loyal visitors. General ticket sales start on 30 April at 12.00. To help you fully immerse yourself in the festival, we are introducing a multi-show discount this year: book 2 different performances and receive 10% off, book 3 or more and receive 20% off.
