Operaestate Festival Veneto presents the 46th edition: from late June to mid-September 2026, in Bassano del Grappa and in the theaters, landscapes, and art places of the Pedemontana Veneta, over 110 performances of dance, theater, music, and contemporary circus will take the stage, featuring 680 artists from 15 countries.
A program rich in new productions, world premieres, and original projects, with established artists and emerging young talent. At its core: research and innovation, enhancement of the territory, community practices, and a look at the complex and fragmented contemporary.
The festival invites diverse audiences to encounter the languages of the stage in an increasingly multidisciplinary and accessible offering, the result of collaboration among local institutions, the Veneto Region, the Ministry of Culture, the European Union, foundations, and local businesses.
From August 21 to 30, B.Motion will feature 38 performances of dance, theater, and music focusing on Switzerland and Lithuania, as well as the new national and European scene. Central to this is the theme of accessibility, with international projects and in-depth discussions on the topic.
Completing the program is the project dedicated to contemporary circus and the Minifest, aimed at children and families, featuring thirty appointments between performances and activities.
