Twenty years ago, a group of Austin-based artists launched the first ever Fusebox Festival. 608 years earlier (in the year 1397), Central Texas experienced a total eclipse of the sun and has not experienced one since. This April represents the first time ever these two phenomena are happening at the same time. We hope you can join us for this rare occasion in which mother nature is a featured artist. 

The 2024 festival takes a look back and celebrates the past 20 years of Fusebox, while also looking ahead toward the future. For eight days in April, artists and audiences will gather from all over the world for unforgettable live performances, exhibitions, parties, and conversations at sites across Austin.  View festival artist list here.

The festival opens with a series of performances celebrating the eclipse starting with writer Maria Popova (The Marginalian) and The Universe in Verse, part of the Simons Foundation's In the Path of Totality initiative presented in partnership locally with Fusebox, The Long Center, and Waterloo Greenway. The three-day eclipse celebration continues with a free viewing party on April 8th with Radiolab and Graham Reynolds at the Long Center (come early and then catch the totality at 1:36pm).

To celebrate this milestone anniversary, Fusebox doubled down on one of its core values: collaboration.  For the past twenty years Fusebox has been using its festival as a platform to bring the artistic ecosystem together to share unique (often singular) experiences through a series of partnerships. Building this year's festival in partnership with organizations who have been part of Fusebox's long history became a strategy for celebrating our past and a way to model a pathway forward. We firmly believe there is no future without partnership and collaboration. This year, partners include: The Contemporary Austin, Women andamp; Their Work, Museum of Human Achievement, Co-Lab Projects, Texas Performing Arts, The Long Center, Waterloo Greenway, Forklift Danceworks, Ground Floor Theater, The Vortex, Performance Space Sydney, and a host of others.

The Fusebox + Texas Performing Arts partnership that began last year continues with a constellation of remarkable artists as part of the festival this April, including: award-winning choreographer Abby Zbikowski's genre-bending work Radioactive Practice; filmmaker Sam Green's immersive documentary 32 Sounds that explores the elemental phenomenon of sound;  Lisa B. Thompson's latest project The Black Feminist Guide to the Human Body, a meditation on the experience of aging as a Black woman in the U.S.; Tania El Khoury's interactive live art project that shares her family memoirs of life in a border village between Lebanon and Syria in Cultural Exchange Rate.

"Like so many of the artists we work with and love, we wanted to create a living, breathing thing. A thing that could continue to unfold over time and remain curious about the world. That thing happened to be a festival, but it was really about creating a space for sharing all kinds of ideas across art forms and geographies–a space that expands our sense of possibility and reaffirms our connection with each other as humans."--Executive + Co-Artistic, Ron Berry
