Festival for
Arts & Futures
HOLITOPIA is a festival focused on future design and creative disciplines ranging from art to architecture. Its aim is to give shape to abstract visions of the future: futures to see and touch.
The festival program is embedded in a cross-disciplinary indoor and outdoor exhibition, and includes a conference, workshops, artist talks, curator tours, performances, concerts and an after-party.
This year's edition of the festival is based on the campus of the University of Applied Sciences (HTW), Berlin’s largest applied sciences university.
Initiated by re:future lab
Festival director, Head of Curation: Madeleine Schwinge
Everything is design – this expanded concept of design means that we can shape not only material objects but also processes and, consequently, the future. Against this backdrop, HOLITOPIA explores the potential of future design as a mindset and method for transforming visions of the future into tangible solutions, aiming to provide the public with access to future design as a tool for fostering positive societal change.
Offering a platform for everyone who wants to actively participate in shaping the future, alongside internationally renowned figures from science, research, art, other creative disciplines, and entrepreneurship, HOLITOPIA promotes interdisciplinary and cross-industry knowledge transfer and invites participants on a multifaceted journey into the future.
