Arise festival: London edition

ARISE is a new transnational festival presented by Fetchish, taking place across London, Berlin and Paris in autumn 2026.

Bringing together contemporary theatre, performance, live formats, electronic music and club culture, it creates a platform where artistic disciplines, audiences and creative communities intersect. Rather than treating these practices as separate institutional spheres, ARISE seeks to reshape the contemporary cultural landscape by fostering an environment for shared cultural experience - one where professional theatre, sound-based practices and nightlife coexist within a single programme.

Emerging from the creative ecosystem Fetchish has cultivated over the past several years, the festival programme features artists, musicians, performers and DJs engaged in an ongoing creative dialogue, including Moa Pillar, Ken Nakajima, and others. ARISE is conceived as a continuation of a growing international network of collaborations and artistic exchange.

The 2026 programme will unfold across three cities:

London — 9-10 October
Berlin — 24 October
Paris — TBA
