Details

MASDANZA, the International Contemporary Dance Festival of the Canary Islands, presents the Jury Awards, Audience Awards and Special Awards from national and international collaborators of the 31st edition to the winning pieces in the Solo and Choreographic Competitions, and will also feature performances of the award-winning pieces. The Solo and Choreographic Competitions of the 31st edition of MASDANZA have consolidated themselves as a key event within the international contemporary dance scene, both for creators and for professionals in the global dance ecosystem. Year after year, they strengthen their position as a platform of extraordinary prestige, not only for the award-winners, but also for all participants, having boosted the international careers of young creators from around the world thanks to the numerous collaborations at regional, national and international levels that the festival maintains. This prestige, forged over the years, together with the continuous support that MASDANZA offers to artists, makes the competition a first-rate attraction for internationally renowned choreographers to present their works every year. Founded in 1996 by dancer and choreographer Natalia Medina, the International Contemporary Dance Festival of the Canary Islands received the EFFE Quality Label from the European Festivals Association in January 2019 and has been nominated for the Award for Best European Dance Festival.
