The story

Streeta(rt)nimation Luxembourg in Luxembourg City

Streeta(rt)nimation fills Luxembourg City's pedestrian Upper Town with free street theatre for one August weekend. Organized by the Luxembourg City Tourist Office as part of the summer-long Summer in the City programme, the festival gathers around 60 troupes from Luxembourg and abroad for more than 150 performances across Place Guillaume II and Place d'Armes, ranging from juggling and stilt-walking to dance, circus acts, live music, and street comedy.

Every August, the cobbled squares of Luxembourg City's Upper Town stop being a thoroughfare and become a stage.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What sets Streeta(rt)nimation apart is its origin story: the festival grew out of Luxembourg's year as European Capital of Culture in 1995, and three decades later it still treats the Upper Town's historic squares as a stage rather than a backdrop

02

The mystery stays covered

There is no ticket booth and no single main stage - performances unfold simultaneously across Place Guillaume II and Place d'Armes, so wandering between shows becomes part of the experience

03

The city starts moving

With roughly 60 troupes from Luxembourg and beyond delivering over 150 individual performances in a single weekend, the density of jugglers, stilt-walkers, acrobats, and musicians packed into a compact pedestrian core is unusual even by European street-arts standards
