The DEN – Dance Expo Norway is looking for artists!

2025 will mark the fifth year of The DEN – Dance Expo Norway, a platform for showcasing a selection of artists in the Norwegian dance scene! During CODA 2025, we invite dance artists/choreographers/companies based in Norway to pitch new projects/productions or tour-ready works to international and national curators, producers, and industry organizations.

The pitching will take place from October 15-16, 2025.

As an artist, you are encouraged to think about how you would like to present your project. The pitch formats, including classic oral presentations with slide shows, studio viewings, speed dating, and others, will be assigned in dialogue, based on what best suits your project, the platform, and the overall needs.

CODA welcomes projects and productions from various genres, such as hip hop, folk dance, or performance. We look forward to receiving applications from across the breadth of the dance field.
