Istanbul International Contemporary Dance and Performance Festival or iDANS is the first and only international multidisciplinary festival that encompasses visual and live arts in Turkey. It is organized annually by Bimeras Cultural Foundation. Each edition is framed around a curatorial concept and hosts around 40 projects of visual arts, staged performances, lecture/performances and performative installations as well as symposiums and publications related to the selected theme.
Bimeras Cultural Foundation was founded as the culmination of a decade of research and effort in order to support and promote international collaborations in the field of contemporary dance and performance. The most desired result of this effort was the establishment of an international contemporary dance festival in 2007. Bimeras Cultural Foundation is a partner of three major European Networks: Jardin d’Europe, DEPARTS, and Europe in Motion.
The festival venues are garajistanbul, Mimar Sinan University of Fine Arts Bomonti Campus Şebnem Selışık Aksan Stage, Cemal Re;’t Rey Concert Hall and Pera Museum.
