Infr'Action is a festival which after nine years of existence continues to develop. It is also an organisation that works actively to stimulate the circulation and promotion of performance art in Europe.

We have initiated collaborations and  exchanges with several other festivals with the firm objective to establish cooperations. To be able to promote new artists on the international scene.

Moreover, Infr'Action works for the creation of a network of European organisers of performance art. A grouping on which its members can rely, for support in logistics, information, communication, exchanges as well as fundraising or common projects. Besides the organisation of the festival, Infr'Action, is also committed to an external activity outside of its area of operations.

Collaborations with different organisations and events outside of France has been undertaken during the last two years. 

For example, at the Stockholm Art Fair in February 2007 with the special exhibition and performance event Performance Now & After, organised in close partnership with
