Biennial Canadian West Coast Dance Platform
November 20-24 2024: 14th Edition

Running since 1997, Dance In Vancouver (DIV) is the leading opportunity for presenters and curators from across North America and around the world to view one of the most vibrant dance scenes in Canada – the eclectic contemporary dance of the West Coast.

DIV offers a carefully structured and intensive program with performances, informal studio presentations, events and dialogues. It provides a forum in which to explore the potential for collaborations with artists and organizations, and to learn about an upcoming new generation of choreographers, as well as to see established artists in BC. DIV seeks to engage in dialogue around residencies, creativity and community engagement.

This edition’s guest international curator is Anthea Lewis, founder of Blulilli Projects UK in association with Dance Umbrella (UK) – London’s International Dance Festival and FABRIC International.
