Tanzquartier Wien

The Tanzquartier Wien (TQW) - the center for contemporary dance and performance - puts on acts in its three studios from October to June and Hall G in the MuseumsQuartier from October to April. Dance productions and performances by national and international artists, companies and dance professionals can be experienced. A wide range of formats are shown. The TQW doesn't shy away from risk or experiment. The areas of training, rehearsal and research are also covered in depth.

In addition to its three dance studios, the Dance Quarter Vienna studio complex also includes a library that is open to the public. The online media library contains in excess of 500 recordings of performances and contemporary dance pieces.

Highlights of the 2026/27 Season

With BOOM TSCHAK: 20 Years of Doris Uhlich, Tanzquartier Wien is dedicating a major solo exhibition to the local hero and internationally acclaimed choreographer from November 5 through December 5, exploring the intersection of radical physical art, dance, sound, and excess. From her beginnings to her greatest successes: The festival spans the arc from her early work to current productions and traces an artistic practice that has continually expanded the boundaries of who and what can appear on stage.

World premieres by local stars such as Philipp Gehmacher, Amanda Piña, Claudia Bosse, and Luca Bonamore; Austrian premieres by international choreographers such as Maria Hassabi, Kate McIntosh, and Alberto Cortés; the Rakete festival for emerging artists; the queer performance festival S_P_I_T_; and the Flavourama Europe Qualifier.
