DE Season 2026/27

Tanzbiennale Heidelberg

The international dance festival
A project by TANZallianz – a collaboration of Theater & Orchester Heidelberg and UnterwegsTheater Heidelberg

29 January to 7 February 2027

Come and discover, experience and contribute to dance from all sides at Tanzbiennale Heidelberg! Local, national and international visitors turn the town into a spirited meeting place of the dance scene for ten days.

Tanzbiennale is an event for everyone: dance enthusiast children, young people, adults and families. The programme stretches from impressive stage productions to open events to join in the dancing.

Come along, re-discover movement and mingle. A particular highlight is the »Tanzgala Baden-Württemberg«, showing the public that dance is diverse, spirited and forward-looking.

The full programme is available at the start of pre-sales on 13 November 2026.

Thank you to Manfred Lautenschläger-Stiftung for their generous support.
Sponsored by Stadt Heidelberg and the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and Art
