Dance International Glasgow

The third ever DIG returns to Glasgow this October, bringing with it a programme that breaks new ground, a clutch of new commissions, and a rich mix of established and rising stars of the dance scene.

About Dance International Glasgow

Sorry, but this event has been and gone!

From here at home, and as far afield as France, Australia, Canada, Palestine, Belgium, Nigeria and the US, we present a cornucopia of exciting Tramway new work commissions, and Scottish & UK premieres.

Tickets are on sale now for shows featuring the legendary Trajal Harrell, choreography from Judson Theatre Dance icon Deborah Hay, a rare UK visit by James Batchelor, two exciting international collaborations presented by Scottish Dance Theatre and the first appearance of Colette Sadler to DIG since its first programme in 2015 - to name just a few.

A strong Dance in the Gallery strand will take dance into visual arts space, with highlights including a performance presented by Zadie Xa in her Tramway exhibition, and a programme of new work responding to our spectacular Nick Cave installation, Until.

Off-site programming will bring powerful new work to CCA and Platform, and onto the streets with work by New York artist NIC Kay, and with our Moving Out commissions of local choreographers.

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Dance International Glasgow are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
