The WHITE WAVE DUMBO Dance Festival is a part of New York’s dance tradition. In 2015 the festival celebrates15 years.
The DUMBO Dance Festival is New York’s dance Instagram experience – a dance selfie of the here and now of contemporary dance in the USA and internationally. At the four-day festival audiences will experience dance performances that last for five to twenty-five minutes. The idea is that you stay for as long or as short as you like.
The DUMBO Dance Festival begins on Thursday October 8 opens with our always much-anticipated Gala Opening. Then one of the most adventurous festivals on New York’s dance festival begins. Committed to the future expressions of dance, WHITE WAVE scours the world seeking the most risk-taking established and emerging dance makers and brings them to Brooklyn for one weekend.
After the performances mingle with the cast of international dancers and choreographers for a cocktail of creative dance + creative party + creative canapés.
