Young Medalist Performance

Emerging ballet dancers from across the United States take the stage in a showcase of competition winners and advanced student performers. Presented as part of the 31st International Ballet Festival of Miami, the Young Medalist Performance takes place Saturday, August 1 at 9 p.m. at the Manuel Artime Theater. The program highlights award-winning young artists from national ballet competitions alongside selected participants from the festival’s Summer Intensive.

The evening is designed as a look at the next generation of ballet talent, with performances spanning classical repertory and contemporary works. Additional participating schools and collaborators are expected to be announced closer to the event.
