About the event

 

E-Motion Dance Festival (E-MDF) which follows the beautiful tradition of Prague Open Dance Festival is a prestigious international dance competition held in the Czech Republic. This year the festival will take place only on Saturday May 27th, 2023 in the beautiful modern spaces of the ŠKODA Muzem Mladá Boleslav. On the occasion of the 15th anniversary, we have established a new tradition in the form of a unique opening night NINE, which was replaced this year by a gala evening starting at 7 p.m.

There is almost no need to introduce the E-MDF (formerly known as PODF) dance competition anymore. Every year, hundreds of couples travel to the heart of Europe, Czech Republic, to partake in this remarkable event. You can come see who will stand on the winner’s podium, as well as be swept by the dance performances of some of the world’s best couples.
