The 2026 Forecast Festival returns to Radialsystem for four days of bold creativity, unexpected encounters, and fresh perspectives, featuring an interdisciplinary program of performances, music, screenings, visual art, design, and stand-up comedy. At its core are the showcases by the six distinguished mentors and their selected mentorship candidates. In addition, the Festival features workshops and exploratory walks led by fellows of the LINA network, alongside guest appearances by alumni of the Forecast Mentorships program, reflecting on ten years of fostering emerging creative practices.
This year’s mentoring team consists of performer Tom Cassani, sci‑fi artist and body architect Lucy McRae, multimedia artist Almagul Menlibayeva, composer and sound artist Heinali, artist and filmmaker Keren Cytter, and writer and comedian Vidura Bandara Rajapaksa.
