The annual Australian Dance Awards recognise and honour professional Australian dance artists who have made an outstanding contribution to dance.
The 2021 Australian Dance Awards
This year, the Australian Dance Awards celebrate the many people who sustained their craft and artistry, and entertained us in clever, brilliant and comical ways, finding joy even as they struggled to continue during 2020-21 and the Covid-19 epidemic.
The Lifetime Achievement Award will again recognise someone who has spent 40 years or more significantly contributing to Australian dance.
