NIGHT/Plovdiv

NIGHT/Plovdiv is one of Plovdiv’s most enduring projects. Each year it invites more than 100 participants and hosts events at more than 70 locations, with thousands of people crossing the city each night to become part of an arts universe. NIGHT’s programme is wide-ranging and varied, with many specially developed projects free to attend.

The programme of NIGHT/Plovdiv includes several modules related to the main cultural institutions in the city, the public spaces, the club stage and artists’ studios.

NIGHT/Plovdiv 2019 (13 - 15 September 2019)

As part of the Plovdiv 2019 programme in 2019 NIGHT/Plovdiv’s special motto, and a conceptual framework of the Open Arts programme, is COMMON PLACE. The project, led by its chief curator, Vladia Mihailova, highlights the shared process of organising NIGHT and calls attention to the necessity for cultivating a common place for dialogue and meetings, by developing together strong concepts for a shared world.

As every year the programme in 2019 offers projects created especially for Plovdiv by artists from Germany, Sweden, Austria, Turkey, France, Israel, USA and elsewhere, developed jointly with cultural institutions across Bulgaria. A special highlight is the children’s programme, SMALL NIGHT.

‘NIGHT/Plovdiv’ is a project of the Open Arts Foundation.
