Since 2011, the Tipperary Dance festival has proposed laboratories and curated masterclass programs dedicated to enriching the experience, knowledge and practice of the dance community in Ireland.

During the pandemic, TROIS C-L and Tipperary Dance started a new collaboration with the HOTSPOTS LABORATORY, with eight locations across Europe, nine leading artists, over 50 dance artists. TROIS C-L was partner of the project hosted one LAB at Banannefabrik with leading artist Léa Tirabasso and a group of 6 professional dancers from Luxembourg.

Tipperary Dance and TROIS C-L continued their collaboration in 2021. Irish choreographer Maria Nilsson Waller came to spend a residency period at TROIS C-L in August 2021 and Saeed Hani went to Ireland in autumn to work on a new project with local dancers. He took part in the festival by showing his work on October 8th and by giving a masterclass.
