Elevate Festival is an annual event for music, arts and political discourse. Hosted in Graz, Austria each year, the festival features an extensive program of workshops, live performances, lectures, discussions, film presentations and more.

The festival organisers say:

“Elevate  is an annual interdisciplinary festival held in various central venues  around the Schlossberg in Graz, Austria. With its unique combination of critical political discourse and contemporary music and art,  the Elevate Festival stands out of the “usual” festival circus. Amongst  the guests are Human rights experts, climate researchers and activists  from all over the world, who gather in Graz once a year with musicians and artists, illuminating pertinent issues of our future.”
