International Puppet Theatre Festival

The Puppet Festival fills the most emblematic parts of Lleida’s main pedestrian tho­roug­hfare (Plaça Paeria, Plaça Sant Francesc, the courtyard of the IEI and Plaça de l’Hort de Santa Teresa) and the city’s theatres with puppet shows for children and adults.

Held right before the Summer Festival, this unique event at­tracts pu­p­pet companies and cultural pro­grammers from all over the world. The people of Lleida and visitors will enjoy over 25 shows and 70 per­for­man­ces in di­ffe­rent spaces around the city. Companies from all over the world offer a complete pro­gra­mme for all ages, with some performances free of charge and others at low prices.

The festival or­ga­ni­zers have also arranged di­ffe­rent cultural ac­tivities such as exhibitions, a photography com­petition, pu­p­pet wor­ks­hops and much mo­re. All these features make the festival a one-of-a-kind activity in Spain.
