Yokohama International Performing Arts Meeting 2024 (YPAM2024)

YPAM (Yokohama International Performing Arts Meeting) is a platform where performing arts professionals from various places of the world exchange through performance and meeting programs to gain information, inspiration and network for the creation, dissemination and vitalization of the performing arts. Established in 1995 as TPAM (Tokyo Performing Arts Market) and moved in 2011 to the "Creative City” Yokohama. Having survived for more than 25 years, it has become internationally recognized as one of the most influential performing arts platforms in Asia. Except programs that are specifically designed for professional purposes, most of the event is accessible to non-professional audiences.
