Ground Conference #14 - Vorstellung - Urbane Kurzstücke

In the organizer's words:

We are looking forward to a new festival edition of the Ground Conference!

The battles are and remain the heart of our event - now for the 14th time. The atmosphere is legendary and you have been motivating us to continue developing the format for 8 years now. Thank you for that!

This year, the Ground Conference is also the start of a new cooperation with Theater Aachen. The Open Session, hosted by Kupra, is the start of a monthly series in the Mörgens Theater with changing styles, hosts and DJs. The battles take place in the city center, well connected to public transport. Our partner here is LustAufLife - a gutted former shopping center, a lost place with a unique ambience. Another milestone for our association is that, from this season onwards, we will be performing at a venue in the Barockfabrik, our original home.

Our motivation is to make urban dance culture in all its diversity accessible to a wide audience and at the same time to offer urban dancers and choreographers a platform for exchange, information about professional perspectives and space for experimentation.
