On Friday, we held the ArtX Dance Award, a spectacular performance. Eight wonderful companies presented unique and beautiful choreographies. This edition was judged by Freya Pauwels, Nicola Wills, and Audrey Pascal, who was able to replace Filip Van Huffel at the last minute. Check our website for the winners, more details & images!
Thanks to our sponsor Hercull, we were able to offer €1,500 in prize money and a one-week residency at Dancelot.
Congratulations to all the dancers and choreographers. What an amazing energy it was & we shared at the fantastic Royal City Theatre in Bruges!
The International Dance Concours Bruges is a new international dance competition organised by ArtX Bruges.

With this concours we want to level up dance technique and performance skills, all of this with a pronounced artistry.
The aim of this dance competition is to create an inspiring and supportive environment in which dancers can develop both artistically and technically. We strive to give every participant, regardless of their level, a fair opportunity to showcase their talent and grow. Through quality feedback and evaluations, we aim to encourage dancers to push their boundaries and enhance their unique expression. In addition to competition, we offer networking opportunities and stage experiences to connect the dance community and support young talent. Our competition is not solely focused on performance, but also on the process — with self-expression, artistic integrity and a sense of community at its core.
