A jewel of the festival, the ARTS FIRST Performance Fair offers more arts than you can imagine in short performances taking place simultaneously on 10 stages throughout the day. Rain or shine! Enjoy a variety of artistic expression across cultures and art forms: dance and music from around the world, and a lineup of creative artists whose work will delight and entertain you. Plant yourself at one stage – perhaps a musical revue, DanceFest or an a cappella concert. Or drop in and discover the rich variety of artforms on stages outdoors and in the iconic spaces of campus. 

Free and open to the public. Performances in the Plaza Tent, Holden Chapel, and Adolphus Busch Hall will be livestreamed at HarvardArts on YouTube.
