Perform Europe Open Call 2026‑2028

Perform Europe is a co‑funded European Union scheme offering €1.4 million to support cross‑border touring and presentation of performing‑arts works across the 41 Creative Europe countries. The Open Call 2026‑2028, launched on 23 June 2026, seeks partnership proposals that address the priorities of Inclusion & Diversity and the Fight against Climate Change. Proposals must involve at least three partners from three different Creative Europe countries, include a minimum of one finished performing‑arts work (theatre, dance, circus, outdoor arts, puppetry – live music and opera are excluded), and be submitted via the Perform Europe website by 22 October 2026 23:59 CEST. Selected projects will receive a grant of €15 000, €25 000 or €55 000 (plus up to €5 000 in top‑ups) – maximum €60 000 per proposal – and will benefit from help‑desk sessions, promotion, knowledge‑sharing events and capacity‑building activities during the implementation period (1 March 2027 – 31 January 2028). The call is open to any performing‑arts organisation or professional legally based in a Creative Europe country (UK excluded) that has not previously received a Perform Europe grant.
