After two fantastic editions in London (2023 & 2024), and a pilot EU edition in Sofia, Bulgaria (2025), Stretch is back – this time, in collaboration with Dance Fest Skopje 2026 as part of the festival’s wider programme.
Stretch is an artist-led event offering time and space for meaningful connections – in the dance sector and beyond. This signature conference & showcase programme is open to everyone working in and around dance and the wider creative sector, no matter the occupation or career stage.
