Organized by the School of Dance at The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, held between 17 and 25 June 2022, SWEAT is specially curated for the international dance community to meet, innovate, research, share and dance. This year, leading dance academies, artists, scholars and other practitioners will “arrive” in Hong Kong to reconnect and explore new frontiers of dance and beyond.

Come meet creative residents at ArtsCross Hong Kong 2022 to explore dance & technology “in the clouds”; celebrate the re-connection of dance academies and talented students at the first Digital International Festival for Dance Academies (IFDA) with screenings and interactive student forums and selected commissioned dance films. Presented by the World Dance Alliance and co-presented with the Hong Kong Dance Alliance (HKDA), the World Dance Alliance (WDA) Global Summit aims to promote dance and wellness in response to the Covid-19 pandemic affecting the wellbeing of dance practitioners worldwide, with the theme Dance Offer/On New Energy. The sensational four-day virtual conference features a series of riveting and inspiring paper presentations, Pecha Kucha presentations, dance film screenings and more.
