Since 1983, the Belluard Bollwerk Festival has been held every summer for ten days in Fribourg, Switzerland. Through performance, dance, theater, visual arts, film, installations, music, literature, critical thinking, and many other forms that cross and transcend disciplines, the festival aims to be an inspiring and open space, devoted to a love of the arts and to unique and radical approaches and aesthetics. As a place for creation, reflection and exchange, the festival offers an extraordinary experience – a space where everyone is welcome and where boundaries are pushed beyond convention.

The Belluard Bollwerk is run by a small team, and its office is located in the Ancienne Gare building.
