The Call for Participation for #rp25

It's that time again – the annual Call for Participation has started! Have you been waiting all year for it to finally start again? Or maybe this is your first time joining us? If you want to help shape re:publica 25 with your idea, then you've come to the right place!

What makes re:publica so unique is your active participation – because the programme thrives on your ideas. That's why you are invited to help shape our festival for the digital society at #rp25.

From 26-28 May 2025, re:publica at STATION Berlin offers plenty of space to bring your idea to one of our stages. We are looking forward to your expertise, your talent, your latest project, your creativity and your vision!

As part of the Call for Participation, you can submit your contribution for the following festival areas:

• Conference
  The re:publica conference programme includes everything that takes place on our stages and in the workshop rooms: From panel discussions, talks and conversations to tutorials, crafting & tinkering and much more.
   
• Off Stage
  Installation, video art, games, performance, DIY projects or anything else that is suitable for the area beyond the stages and to help shape our supporting programme. We look forward to great, ideally interactive formats.

The Motto of re:publica 25: Generation XYZ

Our democratic society is being put to the test and there is a lack of spaces, both online and offline, where generations can meet openly to reassure themselves that there is more that connects us than divides us. For re:publica 2025 we are attempting the intergenerational solidarity that we so urgently need right now and invite all generations to our table: Our collective knowledge makes us smarter, our cultural passions more creative, and with united courage we are unbeatable. Get ready for Generation XYZ!

Do you have an idea for the programme that should not be missing in the light of this motto? Then submit it now!

You can find further inspiration in this year's focus topics (= ‘tracks’), or you can watch the numerous video recordings of past re:publica festivals on our YouTube channel. 
 

Deadline

The Call for Participation ends on 15 January 2025 (23:59 CET).
