ONIRA Festival at Calipo

ONIRA From the Latin oneiric—the dream world. In French, to go together.

ONIRA is a collective of intentional moments, events, and spaces where art, science, and technology meet to imagine what comes next.

July 23 2026 we bring ONIRA to beautiful and inspiring lands and property of Calipo (Alentejo).

Maria Saygua Andre, Sarah Basha, Clara de Tezanos, Jasmine Mansbridge, Satsuki Shibuya, Natalia Sly and Filiz Soyak, artists from around the world, have explored and created portals for the occasion, which will be activated through performance, ritual and presence over three days (July 24-26, programme below)

We believe that the future is not something we wait for. It is something we dream into being—together.

To dream together is to become together.
To imagine together is to create together.

Together, we are the portal.
