Tanzhaus Zürich is Zurich’s house for contemporary dance and performance, and one of the leading centres of its kind in Switzerland. It is a place where new artistic work is created, local and international perspectives meet, and audiences can experience contemporary dance and performance in all their diversity.
As both a production and presentation venue, Tanzhaus supports artists at every stage of the creative process – from research and residencies to rehearsals and premieres. At the same time, it is a place for exchange, professional development and dialogue, offering space for new ideas, artistic encounters and collaboration.
Through performances, workshops, professional training and classes, Tanzhaus welcomes both professional artists and anyone curious to experience or explore dance. A wide range of programmes for children, young people and adults creates accessible entry points into contemporary dance and performance.
Supporting the next generation is at the heart of Tanzhaus. Through Tanzhaus young, thousands of children and young people discover contemporary dance each year – in classes, workshops and performances created especially for young audiences.
As the home of local productions, international guest performances and festivals such as zürich moves! and ZÜRICH TANZT, Tanzhaus is a vibrant meeting place for artists, audiences and everyone with an interest in contemporary dance and performance.
