NO LIMITS

Disability & Performing Arts Festival 2026

11.–21.11. / HAU1, HAU2

In its twelfth edition, NO LIMITS presents a diverse programme featuring international productions by artists who identify as disabled, blind, chronically ill, Deaf, having learning disabilities or neurodivergent. For the first time, Germany’s largest and most important festival for Disability & Performing Arts is curated exclusively by disabled experts.

In collaboration with HAU Hebbel am Ufer, Theater Thikwa, Ballhaus Ost, and Theater an der Parkaue, NO LIMITS presents international theatre, dance, and performance groups, alongside workshops, parties, and interactive social formats. In 2026, a special focus is being placed on the accessibility of the venues and performances.

Wearing an FFP2 mask is optional at the NO LIMITS events. However, the team asks for your consideration:

Many people still rely on protection or simply feel more comfortable wearing a mask in the audience. If you'd like to protect yourself and others, feel free to wear a mask in situations where people are close together (e.g., at the entrance or in the auditorium). You can get a free mask at our Access Table in the lobby.  Please stay home if you feel sick or have any cold symptoms.
