LAX Micro Fest 2025

MAY 30-JUNE 1 @ PIETER

The LAX Micro Fest is a three day blitz of bold, brave performance. Showcasing over 15 Los Angeles artists in an experimental format, the LAX Micro Fest offers up a powerful convergence of artistic vision when we need it most. 

Curated around the themes of RADICAL FUTURES | LIMINAL CROSSINGS | ORIGIN STORIES, the fest amplifies artists making interdisciplinary work at the edges of possibility and within the liminal realities and risks of border navigation. An infusion of radical futuring amidst the grounding force of lineage and origins, the LAX Micro Fest calls in live performance as a luminous lifeline. 

Through opening and closing rituals, exchanges with the artists, a participatory Dance Church class, and a line-up of short and long-form performances, the LAX Micro Fest invites audiences into a space of witness, interactivity, and revelation. With new and returning artists, the LAX Micro Fest lifts up groundbreaking aesthetics and performance practices and highlights the innovative contributions of Los Angeles artists to the field of contemporary performance.
