Welcome to the Steps year 2020. From the 23th of April to the 16th of May, we present to you the latest highlights of the international contemporary dance scene at the 17th edition of the Migros Culture Percentage Dance Festival Steps. Steps will be dancing throughout Switzerland for more than three weeks – in 32 cities and villages – from Vernier to Poschiavo, from Steckborn to Chiasso. Experience the best companies from Switzerland and from all over the world in a venue near you. Advance booking is open on starticket.ch.

At the start of the advance booking, we will draw 10 pairs of tickets for a performance of your choice. Send an email indicating the desired performance to steps@mgb.ch. Catchword: Draw. Deadline for entries is 31 January 2020.

«Identity» is the leitmotiv of the current season. The festival’s artistic director, Isabella, Spirig, reveals in the editorial what questions went through her mind while creating the stage programme.

For children’s school classes from 10 years upwards, the Migros Culture Percentage offers work-shops in the run-up to the festival. At school, the children learn more about contemporary dance and are taught how to dance short excerpts from the choreography which they will later watch during a performance at the festival. Find out here in which regions our education programme is available.

In the run-up to the festival we will keep you in the loop – here on our website, in our newsletter, on Facebook and on Instagram.
