The 18th International Festival of the Azores returns in 2023 and reinvents itself. On the path to finding new artistic directions, the FIA is projecting itself thematically from the Atlantic and the diaspora, through various cultural routes to the USA, Brazil and many other artistic latitudes. It will be at this crossroads of dialogue that the next festival will be anchored; a moment in which the concept of travel is highlighted and the correspondences with both sides of the oceanic and hemispheric mirror stand out.
