Zagreb Dance Centre

Zagreb Dance Centre (ZPC) is the national platform for contemporary dance, movement, and the performing arts, and a hub for production, education, and presentation. For accommodation in Zagreb, look in the very heart of the city, where this urban cultural pulse of Zagreb is located at 10 Ilica Street. The Centre was formally established in 2009 as the culmination of long-standing efforts by the independent dance scene to secure an adequate space for work and production. Its mission is to provide professional conditions for dancers, choreographers, and educators, thereby actively contributing to the development and visibility of the Croatian contemporary dance scene. The Zagreb Dance Centre is unique in its dedication to experimental and research-based work. Its repertoire and programming include premieres by local dance artists, guest performances by international ensembles, intensive workshops, and educational programs aimed at both professionals and the wider public. The Centre functions as a dynamic meeting point for diverse dance styles and aesthetics - from abstract dance to physical theatre. ZPC is indispensable because it offers not only a performance space but also a space for creation, actively encouraging the development of new artistic ideas and works.
