Every new year, the Tanztage Berlin is not only the city's very first festival, it has also established itself nationally and internationally as an important platform for emerging dance artists since its founding in 1996. The next edition of Tanztage Berlin will once again take place under the artistic direction of Mateusz Szymanówka. The festival is currently planned for 5-20 January 2024. The festival offers emerging dance artists based in Berlin a framework for their new productions and revivals. The programme of the last two editions can be found at: https://tanztage-berlin.sophiensaele.com.

The performance project Bodies of Care, a collaboration of young choreographers from Indonesia and Germany, invites the audience to a participatory exploration of the relationship between care and choreography.
Under the guidance of performance artist Melati Suryodarmo (Indonesia) and the media and performance collective LIGNA (Germany), the participants developed audio instruction choreographies, which were all performed in their respective residencies in Indonesia and Europe on 24 September 2021. The documentary videos created as part of this project provide an insight into the production process and show the creation of the performances as well as the meaning of community and care in ten different local contexts.
