We warmly welcome program proposals for Fekete Zaj 2026 from any creative artist or collective who feels they could entertain the Zaj community with a program that fits the festival’s spirit during the pre-concert time slots.
Just like last year, we would once again like to provide space for civil and cultural organizations, as social engagement remains an important value for the festival.
This year, our focus turns toward creators and artisans. We would like to enrich the festival with a “Fekete Piac” (“Black Market”), where makers will have the opportunity to sell their products every day. In addition to the market, we also plan to further develop the festival’s inner area with installations, for which we are seeking works under the theme “Belső Zaj” (“Inner Noise”).
We are looking for creators and artisans who can add color to the festival through workshops, talks, exhibitions, and installations.
Our goal is to create a meaningful, shared experience for Zaj visitors.
Application deadline: January 11, 2026, 11:00 PM
For next summer’s Fekete Zaj, we’re looking for acts that dare to be different: from the deepest layers of the underground to the most unique experiments, from dark melodies to strangely beautiful sounds, we welcome your applications!
We especially encourage you to prepare sets tailored for Zaj, as well as special collaborations – these will be given priority during the selection!
If you feel your music could truly find its home in the forests of the Mátra, apply via the link below! Every submission will be listened to.
