Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater at BAAND Festival 2022
August 9-13, 2022
Returning to Lincoln Center after a series of sold-out, tour de force performances in last summer’s Restart Stages, the BAAND Together Dance Festival joins Summer for the City. Five of NYC’s most iconic dance companies—Ballet Hispánico, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, American Ballet Theatre, New York City Ballet, and Dance Theatre of Harlem—share the spotlight and an outdoor stage with dancers and pieces from across the companies featured each night.
From August 9–13, audiences will be delighted by new works and repertory favorites, with each unique and exciting evening of programming curated collaboratively by the artistic directors of the five companies. In the afternoons, each organization will also bring its unique teaching style to the Lincoln Center campus with daily Education Workshops, appropriate for all ages!

The Festival is made possible by CHANEL.
