The Dancing project examines balls as popular entertainment in the Minett in the second half of the 20th century. It traces the evolution of practices and cultures around popular dance and music, against the backdrop of ordinary daily life in the Luxembourg industrial region. It focuses on dance halls, Zeltfester (“parties under tents”) and discotheques which marked the post-WWII generations. Because they were central to the creation of the social fabric, these places studying these places offers new insights on society. Dancing is part of the transdisciplinary project Popkult60 funded by the Luxembourgish Fonds National de la Recherche and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (2021-2025). The project results will be shared in the book Feieren: Fester, Musék an Danz am Minett, written in collaboration with FerroForum.
