Symposium 2026 – Moving Perspectives

Moving Perspectives 2026

MOVING PERSPECTIVES FROM WORDS TO ACTION 

Save the Date! 19-20 May 2026

Moving Perspectives is an international symposium focusing on inclusion, representation, and institutional responsibility in European performing arts.

The symposium celebrates the completion of the Moving Identities project (2023-2026) focusing on what European identity means in a performing arts context. It will consist of talks, panel discussions, networking and performances, exploring how the independent performing arts sector can strengthen efforts related to inclusion, representation, and sustainable structures.

Moving Perspectives takes place 19–20 May 2026 at UP (Udviklingsplatformen for Scenekunst) in Copenhagen. It brings together approximately 100 performing artists, institutions, curators, and decision-makers from across Europe.

The event is intended as a professional forum for reflection, exchange, and inspiration, where performing arts professionals come together to discuss concrete approaches and challenges. 

Artists and partners from Moving Identities will share key insights and tools from the three-year project – with the ambition of creating space for collective reflection and new connections that extend beyond the symposium into the wider performing arts sector.
