British Council Lebanon is delighted to present
IN BETWEEN Festival
running from November 16 – 20, 2022.

The festival will convene multi, cross, and inter-disciplinary cultural and creative activities revolving around the creative economy and global matters.

The ever-shifting local and global landscapes have produced complete liminality, where projections are unclear and boundaries undefined. As a result, new spaces have emerged – ones for perception and creation – as they echo newfound opportunities to rethink how Arts and Culture can contribute to moving forward. In response, the festival expands on a yearlong programme of professional capacity-building initiatives in the Visual Arts, Dance and Performing Arts, Music and Games sectors to include Theatre and Literature, and invites the audience to think of the possibilities in the spaces in between.

IN BETWEEN presents a diverse programme of 23 components across 9 spaces in Beirut, and is realised in partnership with 28 entities. The festival will also host 15 delegates from the UK to further develop relationships and initiatives with leading practitioners from Lebanon’s cultural and creative sector.
