There will be no Berlin Dance Festival in 2025. At this point, when the final competition schedule would have been required, it is unclear whether and when the Senate Sports Administration will allocate the hall and confirm the financial contribution for the hall costs. Therefore the LTV Berlin Presidium had to make this decision. Even given the fact that no equivalent replacement date was available in the second half of 2025, there were no alternatives to this decision.
