About
The student-organised ARENA Festival has been presenting different types and formats of performance art, dance and physical theatre in Erlangen for over 30 years and is run by the non-profit association ARENA - der jungen Künste e.V.. The management team, consisting of students, works on a purely voluntary basis and organises the theatre week with the voluntary help of other students.
The festival concept focuses on contemporary, interdisciplinary, multimedia and experimental productions that have developed independently of the institutionalised theatre system and are staged at unconventional venues. The rather unusual and experimental performance venues characterise the Erlangen cityscape and the regional cultural scene during the festival week.
For five days in June, groups of artists from all over the world are invited to address the respective festival motto in terms of form and content in their projects and thus make a sustainable and productive contribution to the independent theatre scene.
