Perform Europe is an EU-funded project which aims to rethink cross-border performing arts presentation in a more inclusive, sustainable and balanced way, in all the countries of Creative Europe and the UK. The project is an 18-month journey, which includes a research phase, launching a digital platform, testing a grant-giving programme, and designing policy recommendations. Read more here.

We are happy to announce that the first step of Perform Europe’s call for international touring and distribution grants is now open on the brand new Perform Europe digital platform!

In this first step, all interested producers (organisations, artists, collectives, companies and presenters that have produced an artistic work) and presenters (festivals, venues, and other organisations offering a presenting context) based in Creative Europe countries or in the UK are invited to apply to be part of Perform Europe’s process of collective learning and networking supported by its digital platform, and to possibly take part in testing a support scheme. 

Candidates selected in this first step can shape partnerships among each other, co-create innovative touring and distribution proposals and apply for funding ranging from €10,000 to €100,000.
