Join AXIS for an unforgettable livestreamed performance at the Opening Ceremony of the 2023 Invictus Games, held for an audience of 20 – 30,000 people at the Merker Spiel-Arena in Düsseldorf, Germany!
Founded by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, Invictus is an annual event that supports the recovery and rehabilitation of wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women through the power of sport and athletics.
For the Ceremony, AXIS will perform the world premiere of a new work choreographed specifically for Invictus, featuring nine dancers and a few surprise special guests from the AXIS team. The ceremony will also feature an address by Prince Harry and headlining performance from Seattle-born Hip-Hop artist Macklemore.
“As the first integrated dance company to perform at Invictus, AXIS is proud to celebrate the athleticism of dance and the diversity of the disability experience in this international exchange of healing, resilience and growth,” shares AXIS Artistic Director Nadia Adame
Tickets for the ceremony are available on the event website, and will also be streamed LIVE at https://invictusgames23.de/, as well as BEIN Sports, Highlights on FOX, Gem in Canada, and BBC in the UK for the following timezones: 10am PT | 1pm ET | 7pm Germany CEST.
