Dancers from prestigious U.S. companies to grace Pavilion stage

Over the years, Ballet Sun Valley has continuously raised the bar for Pavilion performances, and after pirouetting last year to produce a virtual festival, the organization is planning two fully in-person festivals this summer, once again upping the ante.

Rather than just one performance series, this year Ballet Sun Valley is doubling its offerings at the Pavilion with open-air, in-person performances set for July 12-13 and Aug. 22-23.
