PAO Festival 2021 “Reflecting the past” reflects on and summarizes the festivals held between 2013 and 2019. For each previous festival, PAO has had a theme and focus which they now look back on and incorporate into this year's festival through exhibitions and performance programs.

The program takes place at ROM, Galleri 69, Atelier Nord, Deichman Grünerløkka, and in public spaces between the venues, at Olaf Ryes Plass and Schous Plass.
