ARENA… of Young Arts
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — ARENA Festival
The 35th edition of ARENA of Young Arts in 2025 once again confirmed the festival's profile: young, interdisciplinary, international, and distinctly discursive. For the opening, FAU published detailed pre-event coverage, showcasing the range of invited productions – from classical theatrical work to performance formats at the intersection of visual arts, dance, and new music.
As in previous years, performances ran concurrently on multiple stages; the Festival Centre was open throughout the four days. The student organization has been a hallmark of ARENA for years, fostering an unusual level of closeness between artists and the audience.
