Welcome to the 8th Edition of Fall for Dance North!
The 2022 festival celebrates a return to full capacity performances in our signature indoor venues ($15 any seat!) and outdoor shows (pay-what-you-can).
From Sep 17 to Oct 8, expect a vibrant palette of events that will captivate your senses and bring you closer to the artform of dance.
Enjoy bold, high-calibre presentations – from Hawaiian hula to Canadian tap; classic music to juggling; intertribal champion pow wow dances to Jazz - and discover the best of Canadian and international dance at TO LIVE’s Meridian Hall, the Theatre at the Creative School (formerly Ryerson Theatre), Evergreen Brick Works, and other venues across Toronto and Ontario.
Our festival is evolving! After 5 pre-pandemic festival seasons, and 2 years of experimenting with new ways to bring you closer to the dance artform with innovative partnerships, we’re emerging into a unique rhythm–one that combines old steps and new into an innovative fusion fit for our ever-changing world.
As we find our footing in this brave new world, I invite you to re-discover the power of in-person connection with us through the physicality of dance, touch and the resilience of the human body and spirit. Fall for dance all over again through our diversity of offerings: from our iconic mixed programs to full length presentations, from digital programs to our Mambo podcast and more. There is so much to celebrate in this, our 8th festival edition.
Thank you for being a part of our evolutionary journey. I can’t wait to find out where the future takes us.
Let’s expand, dance, and arise.

I am proud to chair the board of this dynamic, growing festival. As we gather again in person, our mission has new resonance. Fall for Dance North brings together a remarkable diversity of artists and audiences for a celebration of the art form of dance that is both timeless and of-the-moment.
As the festival expands and evolves, so too has the festival team, whose passionate dedication has enabled this organization to reach new creative heights, and find new ways to present world-class dance to our local and global communities.
With the incredible support of our donors, our festival programming remains available and accessible to new and returning audiences. The generous contributions of our sponsors, marketing partners, government funders, and collaborating performing arts organizations remain indispensable to the growth, success and inclusive vision of Fall for Dance North.
At our heart, FFDN is a community formed in recognition of the power of dance. Thank you all for coming together to support the art form.
