The “Ageless” Festival, a unique artistic event in the region dedicated to raising awareness about discrimination against older people, will take place from October 16 to 18 at the Novi Sad Theatre – Újvidéki Színház.

Organized by the Novi Sad – European Capital of Culture Foundation, in cooperation with the Drž’ ne daj Troupe and the Red Cross of Serbia, the festival once again uses community theatre methods to open dialogue on ageism and inspire social change.

This year’s theme is dementia, and through six performances by European theatres from Italy, Denmark, Poland, Portugal, and Serbia, “Timeless” brings powerful artistic messages and a call for greater support for older people and their caregivers.
