Kutaisi International Theatre Festival in Kutaisi
Georgia's best-documented international theatre festival, founded in 2009, runs in Tbilisi rather than Kutaisi, and available sources do not independently confirm a separate Kutaisi International Theatre Festival. The most plausible related event is the theatrical strand of Kutaisi's own broader, multi-disciplinary Festival of Arts.
Georgia's most prominent and independently documented international theatre festival is based in the capital, the Tbilisi International Festival of Theatre, founded through a mayoral initiative in 2009 and running annually in late September and early October with both an international showcase program and a dedicated strand for Georgian productions, having been a member of the European Festivals Association since 2011.
