Be Bold, Be Bolzano Danza

The Festival

Bolzano Danza is a leading festival of contemporary dance, both nationally and internationally. Organised by the Haydn Foundation, it brings its contagious energy to the city every July, attracting a diverse and enthusiastic audience. Inclusion, participation and sustainability are key to the festival. It is open to societal diversity and ready to capture our world in a state of flux – through the universal language of dance.

The performances, which showcase the best contemporary choreographers and dancers and encompass a wide range of genres and languages, are centred around the Teatro Comunale, from which they radiate out to a number of prominent venues throughout the city, reshaping its perception thanks to projects involving artivism and social interaction. Alongside the performances, the festival also offers dance workshops of all styles organised by the Südtiroler Kulturinstitut.

BoDA

Bolzano in summer. A park, music in the air, a drink in your hand.

That’s BoDA. You meet artists up close, stay after the shows, or just show up without having seen one.

You talk, you listen, you stay longer than planned. And slowly, something simple happens: you start to feel the dance, even if you never thought it was for you.
