The Alkantara Festival presents an international programme of theatre, dance, performance and other events across Lisbon stages, instigating conversations about contemporary artistic practices in relation to the issues of today.
The festival coproduces and presents Portuguese artists of different generations and is an important meeting place for arts professionals.
For more than 25 years, Alkantara has promoted and developed projects in the performing arts, in Lisbon and abroad, that look beyond political, artistic and disciplinary borders.
