For the 19th edition, the eighteen original works and world premieres of the indoor program we are presenting will feature fifty-seven performers and eighteen choreographers (thirteen women and six men), the majority of whom are female choreographers from Montréal between the ages of 23 and 92 years old. During the twelve-day festival, performances will be held in Place des Arts’ Cinquième Salle, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’ Bourgie Hall, and the McCord Museum’s Amphitheatre.
The urban program of Festival Quartiers Danses will feature seventy-four performances by twenty-one Montréal choreographers in seven key locations throughout Montréal. The original pieces will be performed at Place des Festivals, Jardins Gamelin, Place du Marché at the Atwater Market, the McCord Museum’s Urban Forest, the Avenue of the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA), Bernard Street in Outremont, and Lien Nord on the Lachine Canal.
