The India Dance Festival is coming up! With a programme that celebrates the richness of Indian dance and culture, the festival is back at Korzo in The Hague as well as online, after two years of pandemic-related postponement.
From May 19 to 29 it’s all happening: international artists, fresh talent, new productions, community activities, talks and workshops for all levels of dance lovers, taught by some of the best dancers out there. India Dance Festival is packed with inspiring activities.
Some of the programmes exclusively feature international artists live on stage in The Hague. This is the case for the opening night with Aakash Odedra from the UK. Also present are Surupa Sen, Kirti Ramgopal and the artist-in-residence of the festival, Bhavana Reddy.

The free Meet the Icons programme shines a light on four unforgettable artists who are of significant importance in the Indian dance world. In the New Horizons programme, dance makers from India and the Netherlands present their new, groundbreaking productions.
There are many workshops you can follow both online and in-person in Korzo, taught by distinguished teachers such as Kalpana Raghuraman who’s giving a Bharatanatyam Masterclass workshop during the festival.
