In just three years, Aerowaves has evolved from a Network to a Platform – Spring Forward. This development has been a strategic response to the desire of emerging dance artists to reach new audiences through increased performance. Each year in April, members of the Platform gather in a different European city to watch 20 works live, presented as a festival across five venues. These pieces are the ones they have selected by video, research and recommendation at a meeting the previous October. 72 performances in 24 European countries are then given during the rest of the year, chosen to best suit the audiences of each presenter of the Platform.
