Codex Festival 2025 in NotoThe program: theatre, dance, music and performance

From August 22 to October 12, 2025 – Noto

The multidisciplinary festival that transforms spaces into experiences.

CODEx Festival returns for its 13th edition with renewed energy, born from the urgent need to share a physical and symbolic space with its audience. The festival has always been a place of encounter, exchange, and vision—where performing arts become a tool to inhabit spaces differently and look at humanity with new eyes.

Theatre, performance, music, and culture will alternate across the evocative locations of the Ex Magazzini della Stazione di Noto and the Teatro Tina Di Lorenzo, turning each event into a fully immersive experience.
