The Dancing Fountains at the Canal of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) are an impressive water facility, which was constructed in the summer of 2019 thanks to the initiative and funding of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and was much loved by all visitors.

The Dancing Fountains at the SNFCC Canal include 59 vertical water jets in line with the architectural design by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop, together with 10 swiveling fountains, forming a powerful light, sound, and water display that captivate visitors day and night: Special LED lights are installed underwater.
