The 2026/27 edition of Ciclo aims to provide a framework for celebrating rave culture in the Azores, fostering the creation of a collective that will devise and organise a new party, which will take shape this year and be presented during Tremor 2027.

The sessions will be conducted in a blended format, combining online and in-person learning. The programme will run from October 2026 to March 2027 and will include training modules in the areas of artistic direction, lighting, video and set design, technical direction and production, communication and community engagement; mentoring sessions with the artistic coordinator; and a production residency and final project presentation at the Tremor 2027 festival.

This edition of Ciclo will be supervised and artistically coordinated by programmer and producer Inês Borges Coutinho (Violet). The workshops will be led by António Pedro Lopes (Artistic Direction), Gabi (Lighting, Video and Set Design), Luís Brum (Technical Direction and Execution) and Didi (Communications and Community).

Anyone interested in taking part in this year’s edition of Ciclo must apply via the open call for applications, which is open from September 14th to October 6th. Applications can be submitted by completing the form available here.

Participation is free of charge.
