The story

Alexandria Summer Festival in Alexandria

A summer season of concerts, theater, and film organized by the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the modern library complex built as a tribute to the ancient Library of Alexandria. Performances run July through August across the library's outdoor amphitheater and indoor halls beside the Mediterranean waterfront each summer season.

Alexandria Summer Festival is organized by the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the modern library and cultural complex built on the Mediterranean waterfront as a deliberate reference to the ancient Library of Alexandria, and the festival extends that institution's cultural mission into a season of open-air and hall performances each July and August.

The mystery stays covered
