About the festival
From August 15 to 19, 2025, the third International Freedom Theatre Festival will take place in Narva. The program and additional information will be available at the beginning of 2025!
Last edition of the Freedom Festival focused on Ukraine, that is fighting for the freedom of previous and current areas with the Russian Empire and Central Asian countries that need to find new ways, roles and balance in the forming geopolitical situation. The festivals program includes small theatres from countries where there are serious problems with freedom of speech and where theatre makers have been exposed to censorship that restricts creative activity.
The city of Narva is the right place to organize an international festival with this thematic focus – it is located on the border of two different civilizations, on one hand, the free world ends in Narva and on the other hand, it is the starting point of the free world.
The productions will be performed in different places in Narva. The heart of the festival is the Vaba Lava Narva Theatre Centre at Linda 2.
