The oldest festival in Southeast Europe. Established upon the initiative of Jurislav Korenić in 1960. Today, MESS operates in its expanded form and consists of four programming units: MESS Festival, MESS Scene, Memory Module and MESS Libr
MESS Festival is traditionally held in autumn and presents over 20 productions from around the world each year. The festival is of a competitive character and this year celebrates its 59th edition.
MESS Scene is a production department of MESS Festival, conceived as a space of theatrical freedom, an intersection of regional and international cooperation in Sarajevo, a place that breathes with variety and richness of otherness.
