SGGW Days

This year’s SGGW Days feature a rich programme of artistic, scientific, and educational events addressed to the entire academic community as well as the residents of Warsaw. We will gradually reveal the details, starting with a new highlight – the International Dance Couples Festival. The PROMNI Ensemble is launching its own festival, with the first edition taking place during SGGW Days.

PROMNI International Dance Couples Festival

The PROMNI Ensemble can boast more than 50 years of tradition and numerous awards, and it continues to seek new artistic challenges. Its leading solo couples have for years been refining their skills in Polish dance competitions, gaining recognition and experience on national stages. Today, however, they are looking further afield, aiming to confront their abilities with the international elite, and are inviting the best dance couples from around the world to participate in their own PROMNI International Dance Couples Festival.

During this year’s edition of the PROMNI International Dance Couples Festival, the audience will have the opportunity to admire the artistry and talent of performers from Mexico, Mongolia, Senegal, Hungary, Kosovo, Albania, and Ukraine.

On May 15 and 16, festival performances will take place during SGGW Days. On May 17, the dancers will perform in Czechowicki Park and at the Pruszków Cultural Centre.
