Join us for the Cleveland Dance Fest, a 3-day celebration of dance happening November 22nd, 23rd, and 24th in Cleveland!

Presented by The Movement Project, this annual festival showcases new works from local artists, the regional Midwest, and beyond through:

This year’s festival highlights the work of over 175 artists, representing the rich and diverse ecosystem of dance. We’re proud to provide a sustainable and equitable platform for artists, offering fair compensation, resource support, high-quality production, and a welcoming space for inclusivity and connection—all while keeping it accessible and affordable for our audiences.

💬 Hear from Past Artists:
“I love the warmth, care, and respect that we’ve gotten from the staff and audiences at CDF... It has given me the courage to spread my wings as a choreographer and trust in the gifts I have and the message I want to share with the Cleveland community.”
— Dr. Munirah Bomani, Caribe Conexion
(CDF 2021 Emerging Works Artist, 2022 & 2023 Commissioned Artist)
