PORTUGAL: LUGAR FUTURO festival 2024
LUGAR FUTURO festival in its 4th edition, aims to promote young dance creators and performers and to be a platform for the première of “new works”, as well as for the presentation of “first works” by dance students or young choreographers, promoting the discovery of new dance artists.
The four days program, with artistic direction by Leonor Keil, will consist on the presentation of shows, films, master classes and conferences, in a perspective of exchange of experiences between the invited creators, dancers, schools, students, teachers, in an effective sharing with local audiences and also worldwide in live streaming transmission.
One of the highlights of this festival is the presentation of a selected set of First Works by young portuguese and foreign choreographers, which promises to surprise by the diversity “and freshness” of the proposals that will include in this edition the absolute première of a new work by Chen Nadler, the winner of the audience prize in 2022. For this edition, the program has also confirmed the participation of Escola Superior de Dança (Lisbon), the BalleTeatro dance school (Porto) and a foreign school to be announced.
The Lugar Futuro festival in 2024 presents itself as a vibrant showcase for young artists and for renowned choreographers, aiming to be a space of permanent discovery for contemporary dance audiences.

The official message for Dance Day by CID
29 April 2023
Same as theater, music and plastic arts, dance has its own global organization. In 2023 CID celebrates its 50th anniversary. Rather than describe what CID does, I use the opportunity to say what it does not.
The main difference with all other dance organizations is that CID is not linked to a particular country. It was founded within the UNESCO headquarters, that is on diplomatic grounds where no government has jurisdiction. Thus members are secure that policy will not reflect a single nationality or culture or approach to dance.
CID does not provide dance education, does not organize events, does not sell anything, so it does not compete with its members - it promotes their work and helps them upgrade it.
CID does not have a permanent leadership, it holds elections every four years where all members vote.
It has no representatives, its members are equal and are linked directly to headquarters.
Such unique features constitute the power of CID, it treats dance professionals as real members, not customers.
Our great family will continue to grow in the next 50 years, making you proud and successful.
Prof. Dr. Alkis Raftis
President of the International Dance Council
CID, UNESCO, Paris
