In a context of ongoing uncertainty, Beirut Art Days returns with a bold and meaningful edition.
Four days. 50+ venues. 130 events. 250+ artists.
From July 9 to 12, Beirut Art Days returns for its second edition, transforming the city into a living canvas of creativity and cultural expression.
Organized by Agenda Culturel, Beirut Art Days is a citywide arts festival that brings together artists, galleries, museums, design studios, and cultural institutions in a shared celebration of art’s power to connect, inspire, and heal. This year’s edition invites the public to rediscover Beirut as an open-air stage for innovation, resilience, and collaboration.
A Rich, Diverse Program Spanning the City
The program includes:
- Contemporary art exhibitions
- Public performances and street interventions
- Film screenings and music concerts
- Artist talks and panel discussions
- Guided tours, lectures, and hands-on workshops
From established cultural hubs to emerging creative spaces, Beirut Art Days bridges diverse voices and disciplines, making art accessible and participatory for all.
Ghassan Salamé, Minister of Culture, expresses his support for the event:
“By bringing art to life at the heart of the city, Beirut Art Days (from July 9 to 12) give us reasons to come together — around a painting, a poem, a conversation.
These modest gestures, when accumulated, form a powerful act of collective affirmation: art is a vital shared good. It does not aim to beautify reality, but to question it, confront it, and open it up.”
“Beirut Art Days is more than a festival — it’s a citywide act of creative solidarity,” says Myriam Nasr Shuman, owner at Agenda Culturel. “It reflects Beirut’s enduring spirit and reminds us that in the face of challenges, art continues to bring people together.”
