Toaster Performance Biennale
In April 2026, Toaster presents Denmark’s first international performance biennale, taking place across Den Frie and Husets Teater.The biennale offers a current portrait of the performance field within both visual art and performing arts – and the many intersections between them – which are rapidly evolving nationally as well as internationally. The focus is state of the art: taking the temperature of the field right now.Experience 27 different performances, including entirely new works created specifically for the biennale. The artists range from established performance practitioners to emerging talents – sometimes within the same work.The programme encompasses works rooted in dance, text, costume, sound, light, music, and space. Performance is here and now – it is the time we live in, and the time we choose to spend together.
