Djerba Moves is a biennial performing arts event that takes over the entire city through shows, discussions, and workshops in theater, music, dance, and performance. From historic heritage landmarks to the most unconventional spaces—rooftops, zaouias, majlis, fondouks, public squares, or rayahs—the festival reimagines the urban landscape to transform it into an open-air stage.

Highlights from the last edition
