The story

Perm Diaghilev Festival in Perm

The Diaghilev Festival is an international multi-genre arts festival held in Perm each late June into early July, initiated in 2003 by the Perm Tchaikovsky Opera and Ballet Theatre. Named for Perm-region native Sergei Diaghilev, founder of the Ballets Russes, it ran as a biennial before becoming annual from 2011.

Sergei Diaghilev, the man who would go on to found the Ballets Russes and introduce Western Europe to Russian music, dance and visual design in the early 20th century, spent part of his childhood and youth in the Perm region, where his family had estates and connections.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival is anchored by a direct biographical link: Sergei Diaghilev, the impresario who founded the Ballets Russes and reshaped early 20th-century ballet and visual art in Paris, grew up in the Perm region, and the city's opera and ballet theatre built the festival specifically to claim and explore that legacy

02

The mystery stays covered

Programming spans opera, ballet, contemporary dance, orchestral and chamber music rather than staying within a single genre, reflecting Diaghilev's own career as a cross-disciplinary producer who worked with composers, choreographers and visual artists simultaneously
