The Atelier will be hosted by dFERIA, the Performing Arts Fair of Donostia / San Sebastián, which is a Spanish national reference point for professionals in the performing arts. Established in 1988 by the San Sebastian City Council and Donostia Kultura, dFERIA is a contemporary, innovative, committed and varied fair that focuses on strengthening its Latin American and European markets. At the same time, it is an extraordinary meeting platform for different agents in the sector, which promotes multiple opportunities for the exchange of experiences and artistic collaborations.

dFERIA 2025 will take place between March 16th and 20th, while the Atelier will run from March 11th to 17th, resulting in a two-day overlap of the events. During this period, we will participate in the activities and cultural programs of the fair. Participants who wish to do so are invited to stay for the fair after the conclusion of the Atelier. Conditions can be negotiated at a later stage after being accepted in the Atelier.

The iconic Victoria Eugenia Theatre, inaugurated in 1912, will serve as the headquarters for both the festival and the Atelier.

The Atelier will also provide an opportunity to get to know the sociopolitical and cultural context of the Basque Country and Spain, as well as to connect with festivals, cultural professionals, and artists from the region.
