March Dance

Supported by the City of Sydney, from 1 -31 March the March Dance festival includes over 100 artists, 10 companies, 11 organisations and 27 venues coming together from across Sydney to connect and showcase the vibrant and resilient Sydney contemporary dance scene.

The program of 68 events includes performances, residencies, workshops, classes, talks and sharings, all offering a different chance to engage with contemporary work and dance practices.

The 2023 festival highlights the diversity of artists in Sydney and showcases emerging, mid-career and established artists working in different forms such as Reina Takeuchi, Tom Kentta, Annalouise Paul, Eliza Cooper, Lux Eterna, Charmaine Seet, Amy Flannery, Michelle St Anne, Raghav Handa and Bonnie Curtis as well as companies and organisations Force Majeure, Compañía Pepa Molina, ReadyMade Works, Proper Motion and La Infinita Compañia.

This year thanks to our amazing residency partners Sydney Dance Company, FORM Dance Projects, Dance Makers Collective, Australian Centre for Physical Education, Academy of Music and Performing Arts, Critical Path and City of Sydney, we have awarded 16 artist residencies where artists will develop new or existing works. In addition, 2 artists received funded mini- bursaries, Amy Flannery (Critical Path First Nation Bursary) and Charmaine Seet (March Dance Bursary).
