As the Festival draws nearer, an exciting line-up of musicians, dancers, and performers is taking shape. This year’s programme brings together a wide range of performances from across Europe, from contemporary dance and immersive sonic experiences to genre-blending bands and intercultural collaborations.

Standout acts include I Patagarri, the Milan‑based gypsy‑jazz collective; Antropoloops, known for remixing global musical traditions into vibrant new compositions; and The Boondocks, Estonia’s award‑winning rock band.

They will be joined by a powerful selection of dance and performance artists, such as ANTOÑITA, a flamenco‑inspired solo exploring vibration and movement; the Danube Dance Alliance with their celebrated duet TOUCH; and Common Ground, a contemporary dance piece centring on belonging and human connection.

These are just a few of the performers already confirmed, with many more to be announced soon. Find the full list of artists here.
