XTRAX showcase the UK outdoor arts sector to the world and help artists build important relationships with festival programmers in the UK and internationally.
We do this in person through our signature showcase events, by attending international fairs and marketplaces and talking to people, through our international directory, organising networking events and more. We broker relationships between UK artists and festival programmers from across the world, supporting them to make those contacts vital to their work.

By showcasing the work of UK artists we have helped them secure commissions, tour to every part of the world, and form partnerships. We provide networking opportunities where artists and festival staff can share ideas, form collaborations, understand the needs of the sector and collectively help it grow.
Our showcasing and sector networking events are a gateway into the UK sector; we welcome those looking to develop their networks and understanding of outdoor arts.
