In 2017 L1danceFest is organized for the 16th time by the L1 Association as its annual main event.
The festival being held since 2002 initially hosted international guests only for one or two days, later it gradually started to extend invitations. In recent years, to our great delight, the festival has evolved to an international dance festival, so far unique in Hungary.

The formerly 10 days long festival has been shortened to a 5 days long run since 2006. However it provided much more possibility for international productions usually in the frame of shared evenings and focused on Hungarian artists’s presence with special attention.

After our anniversary we changed the structure of the festival, we do hope you join us again!

Structure:
September 21-23. SYMPOSIUM on Performative Arts entitled COLLECTIVITY & INTERDEPENDENCE with invited international guests, performers (with the partnership of CEU and CEU-CAC)
September 24. Performing V4 Biennial CONFERENCE
September 25-27. SHOWCASE PROGRAM OF a SELECTION – SHORT WORKS (max 20 min)
