From July 10 to 27, 2025, the Bordeaux quays will turn into an open-air dance floor. The Dansons sur les Quais festival is back for its joyful 21st edition, bringing everyone together in a totally free celebration!

18 days of dance, discovery, and sharing

Since 2004, the festival Dansons sur les Quais has transformed the banks of Bordeaux into a vast stage for choreographic expression. For this 2025 edition, the promise remains the same: to invite the public to move, discover, watch, and above all, share.


Every day, the program unfolds in three parts :

  • In the morning, it's all about vitality with sessions like “Dance for Fitness” (Pilates, Barre Sculpt, Power Dance…).

  • In the afternoon, we're off to explore with introductions to world dances, whether urban or traditional (Bollywood, Capoeira, Dancehall, Salsa, K-pop, etc.).

  • In the evening, we have big themed dance parties, always preceded by free introductions so everyone, no matter their level, can join the fun.

weekend, local performing arts companies will add to the excitement of the program.

A lively, popular, and free scene

The Dansons sur les Quais festival proudly stands as a joyful manifesto for a culture that’s accessible to everyone. With more than 80 participants, 6 dance concerts, 3 performances, 80 free workshops, and 100 volunteers on board, the event shines with its diversity and collective energy.


All styles find their place: Argentine tango, hip-hop, salsa, African dance, contemporary dance, cabaret, Brazilian zouk, country… A true world dance tour, outdoors, with your feet in the golden light of the docks.
