Bridges - MPArt Festival 2026

The 13th edition of MPArt Festival will take place from 11 to 27 September 2026 in Larissa, Greece, organised by Synergy of Music Theatre (SMouTh).Under the theme BRIDGES, the Festival explores connection, exchange, and encounter:bridges between people and artistic practices, audiences and communities, ideas and eras, places and experiences. MPArt conceives the bridge both as a passage and a pause — a space for meeting, reflection, and dialogue within contemporary performing arts.The programme features theatre, dance, contemporary performance, music, puppet theatre, interdisciplinary works, short films, exhibitions, and workshops. Particular emphasis is placed on collaborative projects, works developed outside major metropolitan centres, and practices that promote accessibility, inclusion, and social engagement.MPArt Festival continues to function as a platform for artistic exchange, supporting emerging voices, while creating meaningful connections between local and international artistic scenes.
