Administrative history
International Dance Festival Ireland was inaugurated in 2002 under the guidance of Catherine Nunes to pioneer the promotion of contemporary dance in Ireland. Originally a biennial event, the Festival was an immediate success, attracting international work from highly respected artists. In September 2007, Laurie Uprichard replaced Nunes as Artistic Director, and the festival name was changed to Dublin Dance Festival. From 2008, the Festival has been an annual event and continues to feature a breadth of international artists while also showcasing the best of Irish contemporary dance. More information about the festival and its history can be found at www.dublindancefestival.ie.
