We’re excited to announce that CubaDupa 2026 will be held March 28 – 29, 2026! The weekend is sure to be another rockstar event!
But first, we must fill the programme. That’s where you come in. Artist applications and EOIs for CubaDupa 2026 are now open!
We’re looking for bold, joyful and innovative work across music, theatre, visual arts, dance, movement, installation and anything in between. If you’ve got an original and electrifying piece of work, we want to hear about it.
🌟 New for 2026 🌟 A section for special projects 🌟 (Don’t worry, we always welcome our stage performers. The form remains the same for you)
We are shining a light on submissions that push boundaries (in true CubaDupa fashion) or need the right platform to grow. In particular, we’re keen to hear from:
- Artists developing new commissions
- Creators of visual art and video works
- Those in the first 10 years of their creative practice
- Anyone with a big idea ready to level up
Simply select the “Special Project / New Commission / Video Work Submission” in the form to access the pitch questions.
As we said, Performance Applications are always welcome. Complete the full form with all the relevant info and support material. Things to keep in mind:
- We rarely programme musical acts two years in a row unless you’re bringing a new concept or collaboration
- We highly encourage early-career artists to apply
- Strong support material (especially live footage) is essential – gather your links first as the form must be submitted in one go
We can’t wait to see what you’ve been dreaming up!
Applications close August 11, 2025 and you will hear from us by the end of September.
