Young artists on the open-air stage.

Students from cultural schools across the county take the stage on the Festival square with a wide range of artistic performances. Audiences can experience everything from rock bands to classical gems, ballet, jazz dance, hip hop, theatre, and much more.

On the hour, every hour – from 10:00 to 15:00 – the newest stars shine on stage with their own repertoire, which they have rehearsed and prepared especially for this long-standing Festival tradition.
