The International Festival of Bizerte is one of Tunisia's oldest festivals. It takes place at the open-air theatre of Bizerte's Old Port, providing a unique maritime setting for musical and artistic evenings.

Bizerte, Africa's northernmost city, hosts this festival every summer with a mix of Arab music, international variety shows and dance performances. The theatre facing the port offers a refreshing atmosphere during summer evenings.

The festival's programme reflects the cultural diversity of Bizerte, a city of Mediterranean confluences, and attracts a loyal audience from northern Tunisia and beyond.
