Acco Festival

The experience

The Acco International Fringe Theatre Festival is one of Israel’s longest running and most significant cultural events. Each year, Acco’s Old City becomes a living stage for theatre, art and street performance, bringing together original productions, independent work and shows from Israel and abroad. The encounter between artistic content and the city’s historic alleys, walls and public spaces creates a distinctive cultural experience that draws tens of thousands of visitors.

The production

We manage a complex multi system production that includes stages and performance zones, adaptation of historic spaces and dozens of productions operating simultaneously. Our work coordinates artists, technical crews, suppliers, authorities and security bodies while aligning content, audiences, infrastructure, safety and schedules within a sensitive and active urban environment.
