Manchester International Festival
Creative TouristManchester will once again become the world’s stage this summer, with Manchester International Festival taking over venues and spaces across the city, including Aviva Studios, home of Factory International.
MIF25 will bring 18 extraordinary days of events, performances and happenings to Greater Manchester, where the world’s most exciting creative minds will reach across art forms, smash boundaries, and speak to urgent contemporary issues.
The programme is under wraps for now, but what we do know is that this will be the first festival under Creative Director, Kee Hong Low, who looks forward to unveiling “an ambitious programme of international and interdisciplinary new work”.
With a previous post of Head of Theatre and Performing Arts at West Kowloon Cultural District in Hong Kong, Kee Hong Low is admired by artists, producers and programmers around the world for his passionate and knowledgeable approach to curating festivals. It’s fair to say that MIF25 is in safe hands.
