Information of 20th Macau Arts Festival:

The Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macau SAR Government presents the 20th Macau Arts Festival (MAF) to be held between 2 and 30 May, 2009.  Featuring more than 70 performances by artists from Portugal, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the USA, Canada and Singapore, the Festival season would not be complete without the ever-present spirit of performers from Macau and Mainland China, as well. 

In a clear show of support for local talent, Macau artists are given the opportunity to début works reflecting the region's own performing arts scene, while on the international front, the Festival reaffirms itself as a window to the latest creative trends to emerge on stages the world over. The programme brings together theatre, dance, music, opera, cinema and multimedia arts, in a selection extending as well to lesser-known Chinese traditions like Qinqiang opera and Guangdong folk song.

Tickets for the 20th Macau Arts Festival will be available after 10am on 29 March 2009 at all Kong Seng Ticketing outlets. Telephone and online bookings will be available from 1pm on 29 March. There will be a variety of discount plans (up to 40%). Detailed publicity materials are available at ticket counters.
