Following previous successes, this year’s International Dance Festival Ireland is gearing up for its most exciting festival to date.

The festival takes place from 21 April to 7 May in theatre venues in Dublin city. This year's festival includes an eclectic range of music from the classics such as Swan Lake and The Rite of Spring, and music by Rameau and Monteverdi, to more contemporary music influenced by Sonic Youth and including live performance by electric harpist Zeena Parkins (best known for her work with Björk).
