Dance at the Odyssey 2026 – Summer Edition
Dive into the world of dance as we kick off a three week summer festival, bringing together some of Los Angeles’ most daring and distinctive choreographers and performers. Curated by Barbara Müller-Wittmann, this pop-up festival promises an intimate experience between you and the dancers onstage as they share a “first look” at adventurous warm and witty, short-length pieces.
Thanks to our dance patrons and artists, what began as a bold and risky experiment in 2017 has evolved into the largest independent contemporary dance festival in all of Los Angeles. Thousands of supporters like you have watched Dance at the Odyssey become a one-of-a-kind event where artists move freely, audiences discover new voices, and boundless creativity prevails.

“Kudos to the Odyssey’s Dance Festival curator, Barbara Müller-Wittmann. This is an excellent avenue for the presentation and support of Dance in all its many forms. The opportunity for performance and being seen that the Odyssey’s Festival provides is very important for local Choreographers and smaller Dance Companies alike.”
