Apollo Ballet Summer Festival

Apollo Arts has had the incredible good fortune of establishing strong and lasting bonds with the greatest ballet dancers in the world. Throughout the years this relationship has grown into a friendship between the artists and Apollo Arts.

This is how our Apollo Ballet Summer Festival has become the pinnacle of our artistic Seasons.

The initial opening of our beautiful outdoor amphiteatre Da Vinci Theatron in 2002 marked the beginning of this fruitful collaboration. For many years some of the world’s greatest dancers of the Bolshoi, Marinsky and other companies have graced our stage and enlivened our performances: Alexander Vetrov, Yuri Possokhov, Galina Stepanenko, Nikolay Tsiskaridze, Farukh Ruzimatov, Igor Zelensky, Diana Vishneva, Maria Alexandrova, Natalia Osipova, Ivan Vasiliev, to name just a few.

The Dancers regard the Theatron as one of their favorite stages in the world. The video 'Apollo Bows' is a homage to them and to the exceptional performances offered to us throughout the years.
