Samuel Wuersten \u2013 an internationally known dancer, choreographer and teacher, and especially Artistic Director of the Festival since 1994 \u2013 knows this well, this is also why his cooperation with the Lucent Dance Theatre, since 2009, has been so successful, resulting in a broader dance programme, to fill the gap between dance festivals in Holland.<\/p>\n<p>The Holland Dance Festival <strong>is the largest international dance festival in Holland<\/strong>. More than 70 outstanding performances by over 30 dance companies, 100 interactive workshops and a spectacular dance parade with over 1,200 amateur dancers, will make the city \u201cshake\u201d in every way for close to a month.<\/p>\n<p>For four weeks, the Holland Dance Festival will host dance companies and artists from all over the world: from works by famous choreographers such as Jiri Kylian or Bill T. Jones, to <strong>great dance icons such as Sylvie Guillem<\/strong>, but also undiscovered gems, new productions and young talents.<\/p>\n<p>Noteworthy are the remarkable Holland Dance Specials: workshops in which choreographers and dancers from the festival present their specific dance technique or method of working, giving visitors a great opportunity to interact and enjoy dance at every level.<\/p>\n<p>The Holland Dance Festival offers a varied line-up to a wide audience, promoting high-quality dance as a source of inspiration.
