Ponuja kuriran nabor predstav, ki jih za festival vselej izbere tričlanska mednarodna selektorska ekipa, izbrane predstave tekmovalnega programa pa se potegujejo za nagrado Gibanice za najboljšo predstavo po izboru občinstva ter za nagrado Gibanice za najboljšo predstavo po izboru strokovne žirije. Gibanica tako v prestolnico prinaša pregled kakovosti slovenske sodobnoplesne ustvarjalnosti zadnjih
dveh let, tujim gostom pa ponudi v premislek umetnost, ki bi jo utegnili uvrstiti v različne umetniške programe. Poleg tekmovalnega programa se na Gibanici vselej zvrsti tudi bogat diskurzivni program, na 11. izdaji pa prvikrat tudi fringe.
---------------------------
GIBANICA – Biennial of Slovenian Contemporary Dance Art is considered the most important contemporary dance platform in Slovenia. It offers a curated selection of performances, which are always selected for the festival by a three member international selection team, and the selected performances of the competition programme compete for the Gibanica Audience Award and Jury Award for Best Performance. Thus, Gibanica brings to Ljubljana an overview of the quality of Slovenian contemporary dance creativity of the last two years, and offers foreign guests the opportunity to consider art that could be included in various art programs. In addition to the competition programme, Gibanica always hosts a rich discursive programme, and for the first time, the 11th edition of the festival featured a fringe programme.
