Backslash Festival 2026
Overview
Intro
Backslash Festival celebrates its 10th anniversary with a curated programme of electronic live acts, performances, DJ sets and visual interventions.
Backslash Festival is rooted in contemporary practices across live and experimental electronic music, performing arts and club culture. It approaches sound not as an isolated medium, but as something entangled with bodies, images, codes, and spatial conditions. Performance unfolds as a situation, constructed, unstable, and shared.
Backslash Festival exists in a liminal space between a club night, a contemporary theatre and a niche concert program, without fully settling into any of them. It pays attention not only to how creations are made, but also to how they are experienced — physically, collectively, and in relation to its surroundings.
For two nights, the festival builds a temporary environment for encounter and transformation. A space where practices intersect, expectations shift, and where people move, lose focus and find it again. Nothing fully locks into place, and that’s kind of the point.
Since 2016, the transdisciplinary Backslash Festival has been presenting works that move between and beyond performing arts, club culture and visual arts. The festival is organised by the non-profit association Tokyo Data Collective, in co-production with the Theatre Gessnerallee.
