To all professionals, we would like to direct your attention to our international visitors’ programme. It is a packed schedule complete with after talks, opportunities to meet artists and reflect, and see how Tweetakt transforms Utrecht for a ten day period.
From 5-14 June 2026 Utrecht will once again transform into a vibrant international showcase for performing and visual arts at Festival Tweetakt. Over the course of the festival you will discover a surprising mix of performances, art installations and debates. Don’t miss out!
Tweetakt offers an exclusive look into the future of theatre for young people with work from renowned Dutch companies and exciting international work.
Theater Kikker is the meeting place for audience, artists and performers. Here you will encounter various visual arts projects and are invited to participate in meetings, debates, Q&A’s, workshops and end the evenings with dancing and dj’s.
At Fort Ruigenhoek, heritage site exclusively opened for the festival, we present our visual arts programme immersed in nature alongside many outdoor performances.
Other programming will take place in the Stadsschouwburg, Podium Hoge Woerd and on special locations in and around Utrecht.
