Pandemonium 2026 Request for Proposals:
Deadline May 22

On Saturday, September 19, 2026, Cleveland Public Theatre will open its campus into a labyrinth of theatre, dance, visual arts, music, and performance for Pandemonium 2026: Under Construction! We’re seeking self-producing artists and creators to help us make the best party of the year a roaring success!

For the 24th year, Pandemonium builds up, featuring local food, free valet, and complimentary drinks served all night long. A feast for the eyes, mind, appetite, and imagination—Pandemonium proceeds benefit CPT’s groundbreaking artistic work and life-changing education programs.

This year’s theme—Under Construction—is a special (literal) one for us! Pandemonium will hit this year as we’re wrapping up our renovation. Some spaces will be newly finished, while some are still in-progress. However, we’re thinking about this theme organically, as it relates to the natural world—think beehives, a chrysalis, etc. We look forward to your interpretations of nature’s builders! Read More ›
