We would like to thank all the artists who attended, our sponsors, partners and of course our audience! Here are some impressions from the press. And see you again at the 35th euro-scene Leipzig from 4 to 9 November 2025!

Press reviews of the 34th euro-scene Leipzig

“Euro-Scene, which kicked off this year with the special format 'Ubuntu Connection', got off to a high-energy start. That was courageous, but consistent. Because the evening not only depicts the most diverse body languages, but also shows what unites the art of movement.”

“The 34th Euro-Scene convinces with a sensitive look at the crises of the present. (...) again a reference to Ukraine and theater with a sensitive eye for the mechanisms of a migrant society.”

“What role does art play in these times? It can offer a change of perspective – and it does so in an aesthetically diverse way over the six days of the festival. (...) Never has a format such as the acclaimed dance competition been more important, because it truly creates an alternative to the egoisms and nationalisms of our time. Dancers from different genres improvise together to create a rousing evening. 'The potential of community', which presenter Raphael Moussa Hillebrand talks about on this evening, becomes visible. (...) a festival develops that repeatedly challenges stereotypes and enables empathy. ”
