Espoo is set to welcome its first international performing arts festival, &Fest – Focus Gent, in March 2024, showcasing six central European performances. Produced by Espoo Theatre, the festival turns its spotlight towards Belgian theater, offering a diverse range of styles across three stages: &Revontuli, &Louhe, and House of Dance. Inspired by the city of Ghent's values - united, offbeat, groundbreaking - the festival aligns with the ethos of exploring new frontiers, challenging the status quo, and fostering unity.
