Prix des Hivernales

Le Prix des Hivernales is an international competition that takes place during Les Hivernales de la Danse Gala in Liège. It offers young dancers the chance to present their work to a jury exclusively made up of current International Dancers, most of whom are Principals. The candidates can thereby appraise their skills and see how they measure up against students of the same age, in optimum conditions, on the stage of Les Hivernales de la Danse.

Each selected candidate or ensemble will receive feedback on their performance from the jury, to guide their work while they are still at school.

Monetary prizes will be given to support the winners’ training, plus other prizes in the form of courses and gifts from our partners.

If you would also like to help the next generation of Principals by taking part in this wonderful adventure, we’d be delighted to meet you.

The third edition will be held on Saturday 16 March 2024.

The classical competition will take place in the morning; the contemporary competition in the afternoon. Here is the schedule by category (subject to change):
