Oriental, flamenco or perhaps Balkan dance? Courtly balls, belly dancing or breakdance demonstrations? Kraków immerses itself in the Dance Night! This year, we set off “With Dance Around the World”.
The programme includes almost numerous events such as spectacles, professional demonstrations, amateur performances and workshops. “We want to reveal the wealth of Kraków’s dance heritage,” promises Katarzyna Olesiak, director of the Cultural Department at the City of Kraków. There will be two stages in the city space: at the Podgórski Market Square and in front of the Białoprądnicki Manor Cultural Centre.
The culmination of dance events will be Multicultural Dance Night at the Podgórski Market Square and Balkan Dance Night at the Białoprądnicki Manor Cultural Centre.
The night is yours, lovers of dance – you will find everything your souls and bodies need!
