About tanzberlin
tanzberlin is a digital platform that aims to make Berlin dance professionals and their work visible.
tanzberlin grows through the networking of dance professionals and their co-operation partners.
tanzberlin enables individuals and collectives of Berlin dance to create individual profiles, present themselves and their work and network with other dance professionals.
tanzberlin enables interested organisers and audiences to get a quick overview of choreographers, dancers, artistic practice, thematic focuses or collaborations on the search and filter page and to obtain essential information about the individual actors or collectives on the individual profile pages. There is also the opportunity to contact the performers.
tanzberlin was created as part of the ‘Perspektive Tanz’ project of the Tanzbüro Berlin, supported by Zeitgenössischer Tanz Berlin e.V. The project was funded from 2021 - 2023 by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Senate Department for Culture and Europe.

About Tanzbüro Berlin
Central contact point for the Berlin dance scene, offering advice and networkin
Tanzbüro Berlin was founded in 2005 as a central point of contact for the Berlin dance scene. It provides information both for dance artists and dance enthusiasts. We are committed to advising artists, bringing together stakeholders, ideas and resources, supporting the arts and throwing a spotlight on the city’s varied dance landscape.
Tanzbüro Berlin helps Berlin dance artists with an extensive range of free advice, extending from individual conversations to group seminars, general consultation hours and peer-to-peer-formats.
As a mediator between the dance scene and cultural administration and policy, we communicate with all the city’s dance stakeholders and take action against issues in the arts. In cooperation with partners such as Zeitgenössischer Tanz Berlin e.V. or the TanzRaumBerlin network, we launch projects and strategies to improve production conditions. In addition, we focus on networking with important national and international institutions to further extend existing potential for dance and to unlock new resources.
Another important concern is to attract broad-ranging attention to the Berlin dance scene, whose roughly 2,500 artists and 1,800 performances every year make it an important part of Berlin’s vibrant cultural landscape. Our website tanzraumberlin.de provides an overview and an initial guide to Berlin’s dance events, maps out their widespread locations and shows who can be seen, where and when in the events calendar. Our bi-monthly magazine tanzraumberlin (published in print and online) and our reviews portal tanzschreiber.de offer deeper insights into current topics, trends and discourses in the scene. The annual dance campaign draws attention to the various schemes found across the city, while the Tanzcard discount card gives holders cut-price entry to numerous dance presentation venues all year round.
