Baltic Take Over
8 – 10 May 2026

The performing arts festival Baltic Take Over 2026 will take place from 8–10 May at Konträr, as a part of the international comnptemporary dance festival STHLM DANS. Baltic Take Over presents performances by artists primarily working in Baltic countries. It’s like a journey through Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, making meaningful stops along the way. In 2023 and 2025, the festival passed through Helsinki and Turku, now, in 2026, it will map its way through Stockholm being co-produced with Konträr and STHLM DANCE.

In dialogue with various partners, the festival seeks moments of connection with local scenes, artists, and audiences. This year’s program has come together in artistic duos who are approaching the space between them in politics and in proximity, in geopolitical conflicts and contemporary love stories, between black curtains and bookshelves, wearing VR-glasses or nothing at all.  In this year’s edition, the audience is invited to performances by IevaKrish, Agniete Lisičkinaite and Igor Shugaleev, Liis Vares and Taavet Jansen.
