"Taki powiew wolności, wymiany, czułej niszy, w której artyści poruszają pokłady naszej najgłębszej wrażliwości, to co w nas niedosłowne i niedopowiedziane mogliśmy właśnie odczuć podczas Gdańskiego Festiwalu Tańca, który stał się kolejny raz, od 2 do 6 września 2020r., (no właśnie) domem dla przybyłych tu tancerek i tancerzy." gdansk.pl, Anna Umięcka

„Spektakl "Sticky Fingers Club" ma wiele odsłon, niemal każda z nich stanowi niespodziankę dla widzów. Ten świetnie dopracowany estetycznie i wizualnie spektakl był ozdobą pierwszego dnia festiwalu "na żywo".

The 11th Gdańsk Dance Festival was held under the slogan Soma et Anima - body and soul. As usual, we showed the premieres of young dancers as part of residential projects and presentation of local stage. A lot of emotions were aroused by the Solo Dance Contest, which as every year, gathered dancers from around the world. An exceptional performance was created within a residence for experienced dancers of  45+yo, according to the concept of professor Ewa Wycichowska herself, under the title Motus Animi Continuus - constant movement of the soul.

7th Gdańsk Dance Festival, refers to the tradition of festivals, and events from the last 20 years that have promoted Gdańsk dance community, such as the Baltic University of Dance, Dance Explosions and Gdańsk Dance Corporation, which was established thanks to initiative of Leszek Bzdyl, Club Żak, and Gdańsk corporation of dancers.  This original environment is still active, gaining new spaces and means for the production of performances, earning scholarships, residences and fame throughout the world. It has also become a new home for the young dancers.  Those new recruits of Gdańsk dance scene, were promoted in a special way during the 7th Gdańsk Dance Festival.

In the past, the curators of the festival were dancers, among others, Anna Haracz, Anna Steller, Joanna Czajkowska, Leszek Bzdyl, and for many years Katarzyna Pastuszak. The curators of 2015 edition of the Festival were two dancers, Joanna Czajkowska and Maria Miotk, who invited theatres from France, Croatia, and Poland. Moreover, Wojtek Mochniej, one of the first animateurs of contemporary dance in Gdańsk, took care of premieres from Gdańsk. He also led workshops for dancers, circling a wheel of history of dance in Gdańsk.

4 symbolizes dynamics, change and taking risks in the dance. The sequential movements of the dancers are precisely calculated by them, and the introduction of a new element often falls into four. It is also the slogan of the 7th edition of the Gdańsk Dance Festival, during which artists from four corners of the world presented various, often very distant concepts of communicating using body language. Almost every performance will be a turn in a different direction, just like after deduction to four.

The 5th Gdańsk Dance Festival took place under the slogan "+/-" and abounded in inspiring dialogues that contrasted with each other. We have presented the most interesting dance performances from opposite aesthetic and formal poles. Starting with a romance of dance and acrobatics, then political satire of Mozambique and Salzburg, and we have immersed themselves in thought over the meaning of life, finally breathe a sigh of relief and joyfully get carried away by Sławek Bendrata's perverse spectacle
