The Without Walls Associate Touring (ATN) was established in 2013, as an additional, complimentary group of nine festival partners that offers onward touring opportunities for Without Walls’ commissions. These festivals take place in areas and communities with historically low levels of arts engagement.
Alongside the onward touring opportunities for Without Walls commissions, the Associate Touring Network supports bespoke audience development projects designed to create an appetite for high-quality, accessible outdoor arts. It also promotes information-sharing between partners and encourages them to be ambitious and creative in their approach to festival programming.
