SXSW EDU features performances that offer attendees the opportunity to experience and reflect on the value of performing arts as a vehicle for deeper learning.

SXSW EDU has featured theater, dance, spoken word, puppetry, student musical showcases, and more, offering attendees an experience that is both entertaining and educational.
During each of the performances, performers and their associated organizations will lead the audience through a workshop-style experience, offering a deeper understanding of the concepts that fueled the performance, and, in many cases, activities that can be adopted for the classroom.
Performances are crowd-sourced through PanelPicker®. Learn more about the submission process and apply now through July 26, 2026.
