Magical street theater festival Viathea enchants Görlitz!
On Thursday, June 25, 2025, Görlitz becomes the stage for the 29th International Straßentheaterfestival "Viathea", which will take place until Saturday. Every year this festival attracts thousands of visitors and transforms the city into a lively work of art. Over 200 varied performances at around 30 different locations, including Zgorzelec in Poland, are on the program. The enthusiasm for the festival is noticeable, because it gathers over 25 groups, ensembles and individual actors from twelve countries that will present their talents. As reports ZEIT, admission is free of charge for all spectators, which makes the festival even more attractive.
The opening event traditionally takes place as a cultural picnic in the city park, a happy get -together that gives visitors the opportunity to relax and enjoy the first performances. Further performances are planned in the old town, in two large shopping centers and even in the Görlitz Clinic. Not only the historical backdrop of the city, but also the participating artists promise to immerse the streets and squares in a magical atmosphere.
artistic diversity and hands -on activities
The program of the festival includes a wide range of art forms, from interactive formats to installations to impressive performances. A special attraction this year is the sewing machine performance "margaretes tailoring", in which visitors can hand in their used clothing. This creative idea has already caused lively discussions in advance and will certainly attract many participants.
It is not only the artistic performance that distinguishes "Viathea", but also the feeling of community and support from the city. The Viathea Team would like to thank all helpers, partners and artists who have made the festival an unforgettable experience. The positive feedback and the great atmosphere from the past event are a clear confirmation of the good cooperation and the anticipation for the coming days.
A look beyond the borders
The festival not only established itself in Görlitz, but also connections to other festivals, such as "Berlin laughs!", Also in the room. This event aims to make art accessible to everyone and to revitalize public space through cultural activities. The organizer Thomas Plattner emphasizes the importance of the community, which is crucial for the development of such formats, which harmonizes very well with the spirit of "Viathea". Interested artists are invited to apply for future events and thus become part of this inspiring movement, as is emphasized on the website of [Berlin!] (Https://berlin-lacht.de/).
Overall, the start of the “Viathea” festival shows how important art and culture are for cooperation and in which colorful variety you can transform the cities. Such positive commitment brings people together, and it is worth populating the streets of Görlitz.
