Belfast Arts Festival

This is an opportunity for an early look at aspects of a new work currently in development but not yet finished.

Welcome to the Corners Showcase at the Ulster Bank Belfast International Arts Festival in partnership with the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.

Join us for a season of site specific and participatory based projects and events from around Europe with artists collaborating together to offer their perspectives on lives lived at the edges of a changing continent.
CORNERS, a platform for artists and audiences, designed and driven by cultural organisations at the fringes of Europe, links cities and artists across Europe including; Stockholm, Donostia / San Sebastián, Newcastle upon Tyne, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Rijeka, Belgrade, Gdańsk, Bari and of course Belfast. The programme creates opportunities for artists and researchers to collaborate internationally on multidisciplinary artistic and cultural projects and share them with audiences and communities in arts events across Europe.

A selection of projects, many of which have been co-created by NI artists and all of which are free to the public, are featured in this showcase, which largely takes place in non-traditional and public spaces across the city.
