Cultural ballet engagements are taking place across South America. In early September, the St. Petersburg Classical Ballet performed ‘Sleeping Beauty’ in Santiago del Estero, Argentina, as part of its ‘World Tour 2026’. 

Later in the month, focus shifted to Argentine ballet artists conducting regional engagements. The Buenos Aires Ballet, directed by Federico Fernández, scheduled a gala in San Juan, Argentina, featuring dancers from the Teatro Colón. Additionally, Argentine dancer Paloma Herrera was scheduled to visit Lima, Peru, in October to lead workshops and serve as guest of honor for the Escuela Nacional Superior de Ballet’s 59th anniversary.
