transeuropa festival: Guest Performances from Europe on ‘Making Space’ (Germany)

Logo with the text 'transeuropa'.

The transeuropa festival is seeking guest performances from Europe for the 11th edition of the festival (11–15 September 2024 in Hildesheim, Germany), on the theme ‘making space’.

Since 1994 the international festival brings together the young independent performing arts scene from all around Europe. The festival aims to provide a space for people and their experiences, especially for people whose voices are often unheard or who are excluded from decision-making processes, events or educational opportunities.

The festival intends to present the performing arts beyond traditional theatre stages, because performances in such settings aren’t accessible to all and many people do not feel welcomed in traditional theatre settings. Part of the festival will therefore take place in public spaces.

The transeuropa festival invites everyone to apply with their artistic works. They particularly encourage submissions from BIPOC artists, artists with disabilities, and artists identifying as trans and/or non-binary. No formal training is required to apply, although the festival requires that applicants are part of the young independent scene (with professional art production experience of up to five years). The residents of Hildesheim will determine which productions will be invited.

Support includes:

  • two performances with technical support
  • a mediation format for the presented production
  • awareness infrastructure during the festival
  • compensation (according to NPN standards)
  • assistance for accessibility needs
  • travel cost subsidy
  • five days of festival programme (visiting shows and participating in workshops, accommodation during the festival, and meals during the festival)
