BUZZCUT Festival is a curated gathering of performance practices that resist and stretch beyond conventional forms of theatre, dance, drag, cabaret, and performance.

BUZZCUT is a space for complexity; for witnessing exciting performance and engaging in deep, generous dialogue. Supporting and platforming the very communities whose lived experiences shape our thinking, how we understand each other and the world around us. 

You’re invited to participate in a celebration of experimentation and risk, fuelled by grassroots values and passion for the messiness in which ideas are formed.

BUZZCUT 2026 will take place across Glasgow, at Tramway, Strangefield, and Glad Café.

Full programme to be announced February 2026.


Expect… Living archives of Black rave culture, rituals of Queer and Trans remembrance, dance tributes to soap opera icons, participatory rituals of rest and rage, radical reimagining of the eucharist, nonbinary drag musical extravaganzas, one-on-one sharings, and more.
