Every two years, Ten Days on the Island provides an incomparable showcase of the arts and culture in Tasmania – we see not only the work of an impressive range of artists who call Tasmania home, but also those who we welcome to our island to share their talents. As a state-wide event we celebrate island culture and look both within our own boundaries as well as beyond our shores as we revel in the fun, the creativity, the innovation and the artistry that is Tasmania’s international arts festival.

Ten Days is an event like no other and in March 2013 you’ll see a new shape emerging as we deliver a suite of international arts festival in ten Festival Towns  – each town will have multiple events, consecutive days of activities, their own Supper Club and a festival experience like no other. We’re gathering artists from across the state and across the world to bring you shows, exhibitions, concerts and experiences that are far from the everyday. Discover a new part of the island or re-visit your favourite spots, taking the time to soak up the festival atmosphere in unique locations like Swansea, Deloraine, Queenstown and St Helens.

Our new initiative in 2013 is Beyond Ten Days, opportunities to interact with festival artists, to exchange ideas and skills and to extend the impact and ongoing benefits of the festival. Stay tuned for more information about activities in our Festival Town Supper Clubs, post-show artists’ talks, mentorships, master classes and other chances to exchange, learn, enquire and share with Ten Days.
