“Once again, festival directors Christiane Oxenfort and Andreas Dahmen and their team have succeeded in organising a festival that inspires and makes you think.”

“The two festival organisers, Christiane Oxenfort and Andreas Dahmen, demonstrated a seismographic feel for forward-looking art forms early on, which we also support as a state. With New Circus and Urban Dance, they have been able to score points with audiences year after year and make the festival an increasingly established fixture in North Rhine-Westphalia.”

“As an annual event, the Düsseldorf Festival! not only attracts local artists and cultural professionals, but also presents international talent in the fields of theatre, music, dance and visual arts. The festival offers a diverse platform for innovative and contemporary art forms that enrich the city’s cultural landscape.”

In the 34th festival season, we will once again experience international productions, meet old acquaintances and discover exciting new things. Especially at a time when it seems that lightness, carefreeness, curiosity and light-heartedness are not within reach, it is good to devote ourselves to the beautiful things. And we want to share these with you. We can master so much if we stick together. Solidarity, respect and a love of diversity is what unites us – and what influences our programme. We have selected eleven high-calibre international highlights for you.
