International Dance Day: History
This day dance is celebrated globally and it was created by the Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute (ITI), the main partner for the performing arts of UNESCO. The date 29 April was chosen because it is the birthday of famous French dance artist Jean-Georges Noverre, who was born in 1727, a ballet master and a great reformer of dance.

The creators and organisers of the events are ITI by UNESCO. Let us tell you that in 1982, the International Dance Day was created and since then an outstanding personality is selected to write a message for International Dance Day. Even ITI, in a selected host city, create a flagship event where several dance performances, educational workshops, speeches by dignitaries, dance artists, humanitarian projects etc. took place.Further events are organised across the world like open-door-courses, exhibitions, articles, street shows, special performances etc.
We can’t ignore the fact that this day is a celebration for those who value dance and its art forms and also acts as a wake-up call for others, institutions etc. who have not yet recognised its value.
