Intern Wanted for Tanzfestival Rhein-Main 2026

The Tanzfestival Rhein-Main has become an integral part of the cultural landscape of the Rhine-Main region. For the past eleven years, the festival has presented works by international choreographers as well as innovative new productions by artists from the region at various venues in Darmstadt, Frankfurt, Offenbach and Wiesbaden.

This year, Tanzfestival Rhein-Main will take place from 31 October to 15 November. Alongside large- and small-scale guest performances by established and emerging choreographers, the festival offers a diverse accompanying programme including warm-ups and cool-downs for audiences, artist talks, workshops and after-show parties. The Tanztag Rhein-Main on Saturday, 31 October rounds off the exciting festival programme.

Tanzfestival Rhein-Main is organised by Künstler*innenhaus Mousonturm and Hessisches Staatsballett, which is based at the state theatres in Wiesbaden and Darmstadt.

To give interested students an insight into the diverse range of work involved in organising and running a dance festival, the Tanzfestival Rhein-Main team is offering two internship positions for the period from 1 September to 30 November 2025: one with a focus on Frankfurt/Offenbach and one with a focus on Darmstadt/Wiesbaden.

The internship is designed as a part-time position (four days per week) and is aimed at students who are required or able to complete a mandatory internship as part of their studies. The position is paid on a marginal-employment (“Minijob”) basis.
