Imaginarius, the festival of performing arts in public space taking place in Santa Maria da Feira (Portugal), has launched its open call for the 2027 edition, scheduled for 20 to 22 May 2027.

Over the years, Imaginarius has brought together artists and audiences from different geographies through a programme marked by aesthetic diversity, experimentation and contemporary artistic approaches in public space.

The open call is addressed to emerging and mid-career artists working across theatre, dance, circus, music, performance, installation, new media and multidisciplinary practices. Up to 18 projects will be selected for the official programme.

The festival is looking for proposals with a strong artistic identity, a meaningful relationship with public space and the ability to engage diverse audiences through live and shared experiences.

Applications are open until 30 July 2026.
