URB festival’s 27th edition
URB Festival gathers us together once again at the start of summer! For over two decades, URB has moved with the rhythm of the city, listening to its pulse and diversity. This year, the festival turns its focus to a rising generation: creators who are shaping the future of performance art in this moment – from their own starting points, in their own languages and on their own terms. URB26 brings together social choreography, dance art, and experimental music.

The URB 26 festival programme is curated by Yilin Ma.

URB festival is produced by Kiasma Theatre, which is part of Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma and Finnish National Gallery.

Collaboration and support
URB festival’s partners are Cultural Centre for Eastern Helsinki Stoa, Sinne and is supported by City of Helsinki.
