Here’s what producers and performing artists at 2022 Anywhere Festival said about the value of being in Anywhere Festival.

“I’ve done Anywhere Festival three times and this year I realised something. I realised that so many of the new people don’t realise how much Anywhere Festival does behind the scenes. So much. I only realised when we presented our second show with another venue and assumed they would do all the things Anywhere did for us, but they didn’t.” 

“It is so important as you learn so many new skills and are allowed to make mistakes because Anywhere acts as a safety net to catch you. There are so many useful resources including a great creative team.”

“It’s the accessibility and lower cost of entry for emerging or indie artists. Building networks with potential venues is really important.”

“Anywhere is an excellent stepping stone out of university. It allows us to put our learned knowledge into practice. I would not have been confident in trying the producer role without Anywhere Festival.”

“The festival creates a safe space for new work, and emerging artists to feel free to explore and experiment art without financial repercussions. Additionally, it provides a net of community for the local performing arts scene.”

REFUND POLICY

If you withdraw from the festival before the program confirmation deadline, you will receive a refund of $100 as many services and support will already be provided by Anywhere Festival. No refunds are provided after the program confirmation deadline due to the impact a cancellation has on the festival, other artists and venues.
