European Dance Festival

Talking about the most famous festivals in Cyprus, European Dance Festival is not to be missed. European Dance Festival, an annual highlight on the European arts and cultural scene, takes place in Limassol in May. Many European dance troupes travel to Cyprus to compete with the Cypriot dance troupes. The Ministry of Education and Culture, along with the Rialto Theater and the embassies of participating nations, are organizing the event. The Rialto Theater hosts the performances.

Each company performs a performance that reflects modern dance trends in their country and is required to display something new, such as original choreography or an innovative stage set. There are also inspiring workshops in addition to the dance performances.

The European Dance Festival is one of the most successful national festivals aimed at increasing public knowledge of European contemporary dance. Through the works of representative groups from each country, a feast of contemporary dance meets all of the trends, dynamism, and new forms of the international contemporary scene.
