Fabrik Potsdam is Brandenburg’s leading centre for contemporary dance and movement arts, located in the creative hub of Schiffbauergasse. Founded in 1991 by a collective of choreographers, dancers, and musicians, Fabrik Potsdam transformed a former brewery into a vibrant cultural venue. It serves as a platform for professional artists and the public alike, offering performances, residencies, workshops, and festivals that explore the full spectrum of dance and performance art. As the only dedicated dance theatre in the region, Fabrik is known for its international collaborations and inclusive programming. Signature events like the annual Potsdamer Tanztage festival attract renowned choreographers and emerging talents from around the world. The venue’s flexible spaces, including studios and a main stage, support both experimental and established works. With a mission to make dance accessible and relevant, Fabrik fosters artistic innovation and community engagement, making it a cornerstone of Potsdam’s cultural identity.

Fabrik Potsdam is located at Schiffbauergasse 10, 14467 Potsdam, set on the banks of the Tiefer See within the city’s lively Schiffbauergasse cultural quarter. This former factory complex has been repurposed into the International Centre for Dance and Movement Arts, hosting performances, workshops, and festivals such as the annual Potsdamer Tanztage. Surrounded by artistic landmarks, it sits alongside the Hans Otto Theater, T-Werk, Museum Fluxus+, and the Waschhaus arts centre, forming Potsdam’s creative hub. The lakeside setting offers walking paths, cafés, and spaces overlooking the Havel River. The historic Dutch Quarter and Old Market Square are within easy reach, and visitors can arrive by tram, bike, or even by boat via the nearby harbor at Schiffbauergasse.
