With experimental concert designs and installations, festival.M inspires more lively stage moments and encounters in the classical concert hall.
All artists in the line-up sought points of contact with their audience in advance: since May 2025, they have been working with non-professionals in a parallel community program to develop individual storytelling for concert performances and involve them creatively and participatively in content generation. The vision: a collaborative festival that raises artistic and dramaturgical awareness of the "minimal" and enables a mindset that does not need "A LOT," but gets by with few means: sound, noise, presence, and encounter.
