2026 SoloDuo Dance Festival New York | Seoul Application

WHITE WAVE will be presenting our 10th Annual SoloDuo Dance Festival (February 12th & 13th, 2026) with 30 participating choreographers/companies in 3 different programs. As in past years, we anticipate performing artists will be hail from Europe, Canada, East Asia, Metro NY, and across the US.

In 2025, we partnered with ChangMu International Dance Festival in Seoul, Korea and launched SoloDuo Dance Festival New York | Seoul. We selected two companies: Sean Howe Dance (New York) and Rebecca Laufer and Mats van Rossum (Netherlands).

In this August, they will be performing at the ChangMu International Dance Festival in Seoul.

From our 2026 SoloDuo Dance Festival New York | Seoul, we will be selecting two companies and will be invited to perform in 2026 in Seoul.

To celebrate the distinct art of the solo and duet, while creating additional opportunities to display the latest work of both emerging and mid-career choreographers, WHITE WAVE's 2026 SoloDuo Dance Festival will be held at Dixon Place, a setting nestled in the heart of the Downtown scene.

The SoloDuo Dance Festival's foremost priority is to inspire performing artists of all stripes and callings to stretch the limits of their creativity and take it to new heights, and to provide vivid experiences for audiences, with the goal of finding and nurturing promising young talent.
