How can I as an artist participate in the festival?
Approximately 9 months before a new festival edition we hold an Open Call, during which creatives from all around the world can submit a concept for a light artwork. After a careful selection procedure, 20-30 concepts will be chosen and created under the guidance of the festival. Read more about our work method here.
