Watch Dance Online: If you’re like me you’ve left watching the Dance Umbrella digital programme until today. You’ve got until midnight, passes are pay what you can. So much brilliant dance for a fiver. Even if you can only squeeze one in, you should do it. It’s a tonic.

And if you’re a total geek in love with dance making, talks and panels are available until next week. Dig in people. Whilst it’s still possible to dream about making dance, dig in!

Dance Umbrella Festival 2024, that’s a wrap 🫡 Thank you to everyone who made this festival possible, and who joined us from across London & online to celebrate trailblazing dance this October ❤️ 📸 Just some of the DU Team in front of Tower Bridge, credit Roswitha Chesher!

✨ New podcast episode ✨ Our Artistic Director & Co-CEO Freddie Opoku-Addaie sat down with industry leader Delia Barker to discuss the importance of diversifying who gets to curate art. 🎧 Listen to their conversation now: danceumbrella.co.uk/2024/11/21/div… Project supported by Arts Council England, London

How can organisations diversify their curatorial leadership? 💡 🎧 Dance Umbrella’s latest podcast explores why this matters: “This wasn’t just about diversifying who sits at the curatorial table – it was about reshaping the table itself.” More here 👉 bit.ly/4fJCHp2
