Community as a foundation
Community and creativity unite in a vibrant and diverse expression during Aarhus Festival
Built on community, created by many
Aarhus Festival is more than just a festival; it's a celebration of communities. We believe that success is created together, which is why our festival is built on the involvement of many of the city's stakeholders.
Citizens, businesses, cultural institutions and our partners and sponsors work with us to create an experience that feels inclusive and meaningful for everyone.
Through collaboration and engagement, we create a space where culture flourishes and where the power of change and cohesion is strengthened.
Our intention is clear: to contribute to "The Good Life in the Good City" by fostering a culture that binds us together and inspires shared joy and reflection.
The Festival is yours. The passion, pride and commitment of the citizens make the Festival a vibrant celebration of Aarhus. Through their participation, they show that Aarhus is a great place to live. Their presence creates a sense of community, depth and magic that makes the festival memorable for everyone. Together we create unique experiences that bind the city and its people together.
Our partners and sponsors are crucial to Aarhus Festival. Their support ensures high quality and variety in the Festival. Without them, we could not realise the many events that bring the community together. We appreciate their commitment to our vision and their contribution to creating unforgettable experiences for everyone.
The Festival is the sum of many contributors, including Aarhus cultural institutions, concert venues, theatre stages, associations, etc. Together they ensure the quality, versatility and diversity of the Festival programme. Aarhus Festival is deeply rooted in the city's culture and reflects Aarhus' dynamic art and cultural life, making it an inspiring celebration of community and creativity.
The business community is also an important part of Aarhus Festival. Through serving drinks, food and creating a welcoming atmosphere, local businesses - from clothing stores to shopping centres - contribute to the special Aarhus atmosphere that characterises the festival. Their presence and commitment ensure that the festival is a feast for all the senses and gives visitors a unique experience that can only take place in Aarhus.
