Welcome to YACAISTE and its ORIGINS festival to be held in August, from 21st to 28th. Starting by tomorrow, you will discover here our program, day by day, and will get to know all the artists who will be present in Berlin.

To us, performing is a human, social and political commitment. All of us practice our art as a deep need to reveal our roots and tolerate and value each other.

We are artistical activists and fight for humanity through creativity!

Do you believe in that as well ?
