Festivals of the independent performing arts are key sources of innovation. They raise the profile of artists and provide impetus for the scene and cultural policy. The FESTIVALFRIENDS festival network brings together regional perspectives, promotes exchange between festival creators and connects them across Germany within the independent performing arts sector.
Not all festivals are currently able to take place on a regular basis. In such cases, the respective host associations will continue the festivals’ memberships in the spirit of sustainable networking.
