Bring your voice, your vibe, your story to the stage.

On August 20, we’re opening up the stage for the IYD Family Fest & Open Mic — one of the community events leading up to the main International Youth Day Conference.

A welcoming stage for poetry, music, comedy, dance and more
Meaningful connections across the IYD community
A joyful evening of self-expression and shared energy

This is what the Open Mic is all about

It’s an evening to show up, express yourself, meet people, enjoy good performances and just have a good time with the IYD community.

So, if you’ve got something you’d love to put on that stage, we’d love to have you.
