The 15th International Performing Arts Festival (FAE Panamá 2026) will take place from April 16 to 20. The event aims to establish itself as a family-friendly occasion. As part of the festival, on Sunday, April 19, it will present its FAE Al Aire Libre segment, a free event that will bring theater, circus, dance, music, and performance shows to various public spaces.
According to its organizers, activities will begin at 3:00 p.m. in the central courtyard of the La Manzana Cultural Center in Santa Ana, with the presentation of “BatUClown” by the Colombian Corporation Legados, a proposal that combines percussion and clown, followed by “Línea de Fuga” by Panamanian contemporary dancer Natalie Ruiz.
Then, starting at 4:00 p.m., a parade or pasacalle will begin, departing from La Manzana to the Plaza V Centenario, passing through different sectors of Santa Ana and San Felipe. This activity involves disciplines such as break dance, parkour, juggling, stilt-walking, performance, and dance, as well as the participation of the Show Band from the National Institute.
There will also be performances by national and international artists, including fashion, circus, dance, music, and magic, featuring Colombian circus artist Carolina Pardo, Panamanian magician Mago Monti, dancers from the Enlaces program of the Espacio Creativo Foundation, acrobats from Colombia and Venezuela, and singer Marion Sila and her Traveling Accordion from France, starting at 5:00 p.m.
The day will conclude with “Circondito”, again by the Colombian Corporation Legados.
