Overview
After its triumph in 2024, the New York legend of modern dance returns to enchant Paris with two brand-new programmes: between heritage and creation, this is the unmissable dance event of the autumn season, from 7 to 11 October 2026.
The return of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater to Paris stands as one of the major choreographic events of 2026.
After captivating over 32,000 spectators during eleven sold-out performances in 2024, the prestigious New York company returns to the Palais des Congrès stage with a renewed, bold, and deeply moving artistic offering.
For this new Parisian series, the troupe unveils a diptych programme. PROGRAMME A “AILEY LEGACY” celebrates the repertoire's heritage through emblematic works that have shaped the company's identity.
PROGRAMME B “NEW WORKS” ventures into contemporary creation with works never before presented in France. The common thread running through both programmes, Revelations, remains the absolute masterpiece of modern dance.
