DA Fest is an international biennial festival presenting new trends and important achievements in the fields of digital arts to the Bulgarian audience - digital video, interactive performance and installation, net art, sound art, robotics and generative systems, and other interdisciplinary forms. The event is organized by DA Lab Foundation in close cooperation with the National Academy of Art in Sofia.

The 5-day festival programme includes exhibitions of audio-visual, interactive, robotic and cross media installations, various types of performances, educational seminars and hands-on workshops, lectures and presentations, film and video screenings, audio-visual sets and parties.


The festival started in 2009 with the idea to present to the academic students and the general public the artistic research and experiments created with the new IT and media technologies. In the past nine festival editions took part over 450 well-known artists and researchers from 40 countries around the world.


More than 50 artists from 12 countries will take part in the tenth edition of the festival, which presents 14 exhibitions, 5 performances, 5 screening programs, as well as a series of lectures, presentations, and workshops, that will take place at 15 locations in Sofia.
The theme of the anniversary edition is æŋˈzaɪəti (Anxiety): Signals from an uncertain world.
