The Nordic co-operation project Ice Hot Nordic Dance Platform aims to bring a selection of the best Nordic contemporary dance to the world. The project was launched in 2010 on the initiative of Dansens Hus and others and has since grown significantly in scope. The platform takes place every two years in one of the Nordic capitals, now it is Reykjavik's turn.

Dancers, choreographers and artists active in contemporary dance in the Nordic region can apply.

At the MORE MORE MORE forum, so-called "pitch sessions", dance artists are given the opportunity to present work in progress and new artistic ideas.

The joint Nordic platform has proved to be very successful, leading the partners to further expand and develop the co-operation concept.

The unique cooperation model of the five organisations from five different countries with different missions, financial structures and models, has attracted great international interest and inspired other countries to create something similar.
