XXI International Festival of Contemporary Dance
Clementine Haudecoeur | Oct 14, 2015
Program of the Festival, from October 16th to 24th, in Managua, Granada and León.
We are glad to inform you of the inauguration of the XXIth edition of the International Festival of Contemporary Dance, this October 16th, in the Rubén Darío National Theater.
This important cultural event, which became a reference in the country and in Central America, is a way to bring contemporary dance to a wider public and to present the quality work realized by regional groups.
The Festival will last from October 16th to 24th, with representations in Managua, León and Granada. You will have the opportunity to see groups from Nicaragua but also from Spain, Costa Rica and El Salvador, all that at a very interesting price (from free to C$250.00).
The organizing team presents this event as an important moment to celebrate dance and this is why the Festival offers complementary activities in addition to the shows.
