Seoul International Choreography Festival 

The Seoul International Choreography Festival (SICF) has played a pivotal role in discovering talented young Korean choreographers and supporting their advancement onto the global stage since its participation in Rencontres Chorégraphiques Internationales de Bagnolet (International Choreographic Encounters of Bagnolet) in France from 1992 to 2007. It has made a positive impact on the Korean dance scene, fostering an environment where cultural, racial, and national barriers dissolve, uniting artists through creativity and freedom.
 

In 2008, the festival was renamed SCF (Seoul Choreography Festival), evolving into an international event where distinguished choreographers from Korea and around the world gather to exchange and present works that reflect the spirit of contemporary dance and art. In 2024, the festival has been rebranded as SICF (Seoul International Choreography Festival) to further its global reach and ambitions.
 

Now in its 34th edition, SICF continues to explore the artistic depth and innovation of choreography through creative and experimental programming. By fostering dynamic connections among artists, audiences, and professionals, the festival expands the international circulation of Korean contemporary dance and strengthens its global network.
 

As Korea’s only choreography-focused festival, SICF offers unique and profound artistic experiences, positioning itself as a leading international platform shaping the future of choreography and contemporary dance festivals.
