Tiny Fest: INTERxCHANGE

Help us uplift the voices and artists of Ōtautahi! Tiny 2026 is arriving at the Bus Interchange and, as we prepare our programme, we debut our Community Activations with INTERxCHANGES, a mini-doc series that features interviews between artists sharing a bus ride.

Celebrating the diversity of our communities' plural voices, stories, and practices, we will pair local artists from diverse backgrounds/phases of practice. As they embark on a journey around town, we witness honest conversations about being a performance/experimental artist in Ōtautahi; while they share their dreams, works and processes and offer performative activations that foster discussions around performance art, mobility, access, creative practice and social participation.

Having the ordinary s/pace of public transport as the background for not-so-ordinary discussions, this series raises awareness of the festival and its next location while intentionally putting different worlds in contact, and providing interesting content for the public to connect with artists outside their performance work.
