From Reims Scènes d'Europe to FARaway: a constantly evolving festival

Reims Scènes d'Europe was a biennial performing arts festival that presented about fifty artistic proposals in the cultural venues of Reims. In 2020, the festival evolved to become FARaway - Festival des Arts à Reims, an even more international annual event that extends its gaze beyond the European continent to embrace artistic scenes from around the world.

Seven cultural institutions, a common vision

FARaway is supported and conceived by seven cultural institutions in Reims that collectively program the festival:

  • Le Manège - Scène nationale de Reims
  • La Cartonnerie - SMAC
  • Césaré - Centre national de création musicale
  • La Comédie de Reims - Centre dramatique national
  • Le FRAC Champagne-Ardenne
  • Nova Villa
  • L'Opéra de Reims

A multidisciplinary and international program

Each edition of FARaway explores a different geographical and artistic territory. The 2024 edition (5th) focused on Mediterranean artists, while the 2025 edition (6th) highlighted Northern Europe. The festival offers about thirty shows and fifty performances over eleven days, mixing theater, dance, music, circus, performance, installations, young audiences, workshops, round tables, and exhibitions.

A cultural highlight of Reims

Scheduled every year in January-February, FARaway has become a major highlight of the Reims cultural season. The festival takes place in more than ten venues across the city and its region, offering spectators a dense and stimulating artistic discovery experience. The festival's commitment to cooperation, exchange between artists, and meeting audiences makes it a unique event in the cultural landscape of the Grand Est.
