As the global CICLOPE community continues to grow, the Festival and Awards have a brand new home.

This year’s edition once again returns to the culture capital of Berlin – and for the first time, will be held at the stunning Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW).

HKW is a pluri-disciplinary arts institution with a rich history, and a strong ethos towards finding creative solutions to better inhabit this world together. Its modernist architecture was intended to facilitate the free exchange of ideas, and it is an affecting space that aligns with CICLOPE’s mission to drive positive change across the industry.

Located in the heart of Berlin, the venue is nestled amongst the best of everything the city has to offer.
