The annual Luxembourg Gala des Etoiles is scheduled for 6-7 July 2019 at the Grand Théâtre.

In addition to classical variations, the audience awaits creations, world premieres and sensational performances by these dancers, accompanied by live music by Maestro Igor Zapravdin, Artistic Director of the gala and pianist at the Vienna State Opera. Internationally renowned stars and soloists Dinu Tamazlacaru, Masayu Kimoto, Young Gyu Choi, Alessandro Staiano and Francesco Daniele Costa will also be present.
