About DNI
We’ve made something unique
Just for you…
Dance is an experience by itself. So we decided to create the perfect combination between the most paradisiac stage in Portugal and the rhythms that make you move.
Danças na Ilha first started in 2018 in a very modest afternoon dance. We have expanded ever since and our main goals are to developing the dancing community in the Azores and promote the discovery of one of the most beautiful islands in Portugal.
The crazy boss
Philippe Hecht
The OCD of the festival.
Already being in this market for more than 5 years, he assures that the experience of the island is something never felt before.
More than creating a unique dance experience, his main goal is to build a dance family on the islands.
“I fell in love with the energy of this island from the first day I set foot on it.”
The stunning boss
Ricardo Silveira
One of the key elements to make this festival possible.
Already considered a local, Ricardo has known this magical island for more than 8 years.
Besides an immense passion for dance, what really moves him in this experience is the people.
“I want to provide an unforgettable experience in a magical place.”
