Conflux is a festival exploring multisensory encounters, urgent ideas, contemporary art, and experimental music. From 24 to 27 September 2026, Conflux will once again take over various venues across the city of Rotterdam.
After three editions of in-depth explorations of the human–machine relationship, and last year’s Rites of Decay, which reflected on human rituals in an ever-decaying world, it is time to introduce a new direction that responds to the urgencies of the present.
In 2026, Conflux Festival turns to Tactics for Cultural Resistance, a theme that focuses on how art can open new spaces for imagination, experimentation, and enduring agency within today’s technological and (geo)political conditions.
The day-to-day programme, individual event tickets and passe-partout tickets are now available. Join us and experience how art can reshape perception, foster collective agency, and propose alternative ways of sensorial exchange and activism.
