Digital is here. foldA celebrates it.
As a city, we are always looking to embrace innovation. Art, culture and technology are at the heart of inspiring new and exciting ideas. foldA is a unique festival based in Kingston that positions the city at the centre of a national experiment in live performance and technology that breaks new ground. We hope you will join the artists, researchers and audiences here from across the country to explore how foldA makes it possible to experience art and technology intersecting in a new way.
