Indigo Festival: Hyperconsumption – The Age of Unpredictability
7. 10. 2026–9. 10. 2026

Under the theme “Hyperconsumption” Indigo Festival will explore the crisis of saturation that defines contemporary society through a dynamic intersection of philosophy, music, and contemporary design. Framed by the provocative motto “Slop till you drop,” the festival will offer a much-needed space for reflection, critical thought, and the search for collective responses in a world where causes and consequences are becoming increasingly unpredictable.
