2026 Asian Gems in the Arts
The 42nd FACP Annual Conference in Manila is inviting artists to perform at the Asian Gems in the Arts (AGA) sessions as part of the Conference event. Performances will be scheduled on 10 September 2026. All Governors are invited to recommend a group to perform in the AGA sessions that will successfully demonstrate traditional performing arts in innovative ways.
PERFORMANCE CONDITIONS
There will be a total of 5 AGA groups chosen by the Program Committee, 3 groups from overseas and up to 2 groups from Manila.
Each performance will be limited to 15 to 20 minutes. Please note that the reset time between two performances will be limited to 5 minutes. Each group will be given 1 hour 30 minutes for stage rehearsal the day before the performance. Each team must assign one member as administrative and technical coordinator and arrange its own on-site technical executive staff.
All the shortlisted groups will receive 1 free Full Pass to the Conference.
A fee of USD500 per person is paid after the performance in October, a maximum of USD2,000 per group (i.e. larger groups exceeding 4 people will cover any cost exceeding USD2,000 by themselves), tax included.
