This performance, featuring dancers from Brussels, Paris, and Senegal, is part of the Art 2gether festival by Europalia, celebrating the end of Belgium's Presidency of the European Council. After a month of rehearsals, the dancers showcased movements inspired by hip-hop, break dance, and Afro-influenced styles.

Meanwhile, in Yare, Venezuela, hundreds celebrated the Diablos Danzantes de Yare, a 275-year-old tradition with roots in drought prayers or slave protests. Both events highlighted cultural heritage through dynamic dance and community participation.
