📢 Open Call for Festivals
🎠Organized by: UNIMA International Festival Commission
The PASSPORT program invites festivals to support young UNIMA members—puppeteers and students—by giving them the opportunity to attend international events and gain practical experience in festival organization and programming.
By participating, your festival can:
- Offer free accommodation and festival tickets to young artists
- Contribute to the professional growth of the next generation of puppeteers
📌 Note: PASSPORT recipients are responsible for their own travel, meals, and visa fees (if applicable).

Follow-Up – Passport Programme / Saperli Festival 2026
Dear UNIMA Team,
I hope you are well. I previously sent an email to the address listed for the Festival Department regarding the Passport Programme and Saperli Festival 2026 (sent on February 14, with a follow-up on February 17).
Due to the reasons mentioned in my previous emails, including visa requirements and preparation timelines, I would greatly appreciate if my previous message could be reviewed at your earliest convenience.
Thank you very much for your time and attention.
Warm regards,
Mohaddeseh (Pari) Mahfoozi Nejad
