The Choreographic Platform Austria (CPA) aims to make the diverse choreographic activities in the Austrian provinces visible to national and international audiences. This is achieved through a biennial event presenting outstanding dance and performance productions from Austria. Additionally, the CPA operates as an online platform, portraying Austrian institutions, initiatives, and artists. It also provides a curated event calendar that offers an overview of choreography and dance events in each province.

The contributions to the online platform are created in close collaboration with local institutions, initiatives, and artists. They provide insights into various scenes and contribute to making them visible beyond regional boundaries. Both major institutions and established artists, as well as independent initiatives and discoveries, are highlighted. The aim is not to provide a comprehensive representation of the diverse Austrian performance scene but rather to serve as a dynamic archive that continuously grows and evolves. It aims to enhance the national and international visibility of contemporary dance throughout Austria and provide opportunities for fruitful exchange.

The CPA is equally funded by the Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Public Service, and Sport and the Cultural Department of the City of Vienna. Additionally, the states of Lower Austria, Burgenland, Salzburg, Styria, Carinthia, Upper Austria, Tyrol, and Vorarlberg also contribute.
