  • Overview

    “Tabestoon Festival (/tah-bes-toon/ – /ˈtʌ bɜːs tuːn/; Summer in Farsi) is a vibrant and diverse multi-platform artistic festival devoted to fostering the rich creative tastes of the new generation of Iranian youth in North American diaspora communities, aiming to radically reimagine artistic innovation and unite people by spreading love and joy.

    Inaugurated in 2014, the festival’s content and programs are diligently curated every two years by a passionate team of young avant-garde professionals.  From its early inception, the festival developed a platform for collaboration and fusion of Iranian and Western arts, music and culture in order to create a unique euphoric experience for its audiences and offer a rich palette for many tastes.

    Tabestoon Festival is anything but the ordinary summer festival one might expect in Calgary!

    The 2016 Tabestoon Festival promises to surpass all expectations and liberate your artistic imagination.  TabestoonFest 2016 is set to take place in the urban core of Downtown Calgary at the iconic Olympic Plaza and the neighboring venues. This year’s Festival takes place August 12-13, 2016.”
