The Swedish Performing Arts Biennial 2025
The very best from Sweden ́s stages!
The Performing Arts Biennial is Sweden’s largest performing arts festival and is aimed at both the public and the industry. For one week in May every two years, it showcases the best from Sweden’s stages in theatre, musical theatre, dance and circus. It is an arena for all genres of performing arts and a meeting place for performing artists from all over the country, but also with many foreign guests. The event is organized by Swedish Performing Arts Coalition and a selected host stage in the city where the biennial is held. The performances are chosen by a competent selection committee.
The Performing Arts Biennale also includes performances from the host organization and
international guest performances. In addition, there are hundreds of seminars, workshops,
talks, debates, annual meetings, board meetings – and not least, festivities.
