An international network of festivals with a programme of contemporary dance shows in urban landscapes. Currently, the CQD network is composed of 32 European, Asiatic and South/Central American Members.
The CQD – DANCING CITIES network was created by the Associació Marató de l’Espectacle in 1997 in Barcelona, Spain. The organization, conscious of the shortage and connection between dance and public, in 1992 created the first site specific dance festival in the city of Barcelona; Dansa al Parc, a festival with one clear intention: to present dance in a seductive space, like the architect Antoni Gaudi’s Parc Guell. The association has coordinated the network since its creation and has succeeded to create an international circuit integrates by independent festivals, with a common objective: the promotion of dance in urban landscapes.
