International Dance Day is celebrated every year on April 29th to honor the art of dance and its ability to bring people together across cultures. It was established in 1982 by the International Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute (ITI), a partner of UNESCO. The date commemorates the birthday of Jean-Georges Noverre, a French dancer and ballet master often regarded as the “father of modern ballet”.
The day aims to raise awareness about the importance of dance as a cultural and artistic expression. Events like performances, workshops, and festivals are held worldwide, and a special message is shared annually by a renowned dancer or choreographer.
