Designed for people under 30, DREAM LANDES is more than just an event — it’s an artistic playground, a space for connection, and a manifesto for a creative, inclusive, and engaged youth. Here, young talents are at the heart of it all.

Cinema Section

Short film screenings curated by a jury, with a focus on innovation, bold storytelling, and hybrid styles. Each session is followed by discussions, meet-ups, or debates to give the works a new life beyond the screen.

Visual Arts & Immersive Exhibition Section

A surprising scenographic journey blending installations, visual arts, and digital creations. Everything is designed to showcase the artists’ work, question their role in society, and invite the audience into a fully immersive sensory experience.

Performances & Artistic Battles Section

Open stages, live creative duels, dance, spoken word, street art, performances… A true moment of sharing and self-expression, where collective emotion reigns supreme.

Interactive & Participatory Workshops Section

Introductory workshops, collaborative creations, artist meet-ups… Here, the audience becomes a true part of the festival. You’re not just here to watch — you’re here to do, test, invent, and co-create.

Broadcast & Communication Section

DREAM LANDES embraces bold, creative communication: social media, urban posters, targeted actions in schools and cultural venues… not to mention the human network, because nothing beats a good word of mouth


A festival that celebrates:

- youth creativity
- artistic inclusion
- collective emotion

Prêmios em dinheiro: 5€
