At Spring Forward 2023 Aerowaves is presenting the #Twenty23 artists, a selection which includes works from 16 countries and showcases a diverse and inspiring selection of choreographers working across Europe. In addition, Oona Doherty will present Hope Hunt and the Ascension into Lazarus, the work that was selected by Aerowaves in 2017, but has never been presented live before as part of the festival.

Since Spring Forward Festival is mainly a professional festival, and only registered professionals will have access to all the performances. However, some of the works and double bills will be open to the public at the Samuel Beckett Theatre, The Complex and Smock Alley.

Tickets will be put on sale soon for those shows open to the public.
