Who are We?

The intention is to host artists, choreographers and dancers from all over the world. The program includes performances, workshops, video dance screenings, lectures- conferences, and events for all ages. Dance Days Chania lives through its volunteers and invests in collaboration and co-creation. People of dance and other artists, from Greece and worldwide are present and support this festival.
