The Gyula Castle Theatre operates in the court of the only gothic brick fortress that has survived in Central-Europe. Between 1st July and 15th August guests are entertained with the best performances of historical dramas, different forms of contemporary prosaic theatre, opera, operetta, ballet, mediaeval courtyard-music, jazz, puppet-show, classic-, folk-music and folk-dance in the summer theatre. Not only the court of the fortress is turned into a theatre, but programmes of great variety are available on the nearby lake-stage and on stages set up at different places in the town.

Every year since 2005, the first two weeks of July are dedicated to an international Shakespeare festival.
The aim is to let the highest quality Shakespeare productions be performed in Gyula. Along with the Castle Theatre’s first own production, the best Hungarian speaking performances of the season and international applauded plays from abroad are invited.

There has been a reconstruction of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre on the racecourse in Neuss since 1991 and it is here, every year in Summer, that the works of the Bard of Elizabethan England are given new life. The festival shows productions from all over the world, including, most importantly of course, performances in the original language of Shakespeare. The authentic theatre experience – direct and up close, from the 500 seats of the Neuss Globe.

The Yerevan International Shakespeare Festival named after Vahram Papazian was founded in 2004 by director Hakob Ghazanchian and Shakespeare scholar Andrzej Żurowski. For the first three years, only festivals of monodrama performances were held and the mono performances with a Shakespearean subject were invited to Yerevan. Since 2004, the festival has been expanded and, in parallel with mono performances, big performances were also invited to Yerevan. The festival organisers are currently thinking of returning to the solo format, since that type of performance is a unique and rare Shakespeare laboratory, not only for the actors and the director but for the audience as well. For the last few years, during the Yerevan International Shakespeare Festivals named after Vahram Papazian we have presented the theatre groups of P. Brook, D. Donnellan and I. Brook, the theatres of Sh. Rustavelli and S. Abashidze (Tbilisi), the Artistic theatre named after A. Chekhov and  "Et Cetera" theatre (Moscow), as well as famous actors and directors from various countries of the world.

The Shakespeare Festival was born in 2003 in Santa Susanna, a small town in the Maresme region.
In 2008, the festival moved to Mataro, the capital of the region, where it was held until 2010. In 2013, the 10th Festival will held in the city of Barcelona. The city will host the Shakespeare Festival, although the intention is to spread throughout the Catalan territory.

The proposals of the Festival have and will continue to have the desire to produce art, co-produce and show performances around the figure of William Shakespeare. The English author will be the backbone but the formats and prospects may be variable as well.

The headquarters of the new festival will be the Library of Catalonia, in the heart of the Raval district, managed by La Perla 29. A Gothic nave with stone walls will become a very special place. The idea is to create a network in the Raval district and other areas that they may also include in the Festival, such as the Romea Theatre, the Film Archive of Catalonia, the Barcelona University, the Centre for Contemporary Culture ...

La Perla 29, the theatrical production enterprise directed by Oriol Broggi, Julio Manrique as director of the Romea Theatre, the FOCUS Group and the team that manage the Shakespeare Festival will shape this new version of the Shakespeare Festival that will be presented in the city of Barcelona in 2013.

The Shakespeare Festival at the Silesian-Moravian Castle is a festival which is a part of a large Czech-Slovak project called The Summer Shakespeare Festival. It has been held each summer (for the past 9 years) in Prague (CZ), Brno (CZ), Bratislava (SK),and it was also introduced to the public in Ostrava (CZ) and Kosice (SK) in 2008.

Here, in Ostrava, the festival is produced by PaS de Theatre s.r.o. company. It is the largest dramatic festival in the City of Ostrava and in the Moravian-Silesian region itself. Since 2008, the festival has been visited by about 40,000 visitors. It was a strong success, no free tickets left. We have also had the honour to bring The Krakow Theatre (Poland) with Mr Jerzy Stuhr performing “Richard III”. on two nights, “As you like it” by JAY production (Slovakia), “The tempest” (Schok – Prague) and “The comedy of errors” (PaS de Theatre – Ostrava). It is an advantage of the region, being so close to the borders of Poland and Slovakia, that we can  attract performers from those countries and interested visitors. As a continuous part of the festival, the organiser – PaS de Theatre - produces its own plays specifically for the purpose of the festival. We always use local artists or artists connected to the region. Our goal is to promote the local artistic community elsewhere – at the moment we always perform in Brno (CZ), Prague (CZ), Bratislava (SK) – and we hope to develop this further and perform at other festivals – if possible.

The Shakespeare Festival is the largest, cyclical, international theatre event, organised each year in the first week of August in Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia. Its history begins in 1993, with the first Gdańsk Shakespeare Days, which evolved in 1997 into an international festival for the celebration of the Gdańsk Millennium. Since 2008 the event has been co-organised by the Gdańsk Shakespearean Theatre and Theatrum Gedanense Foundation. We present the most interesting Shakespearean theatrical productions from Poland and abroad. By 2010, there had been 14 editions of the festival, during which around 150 theatre companies from over 40 countries, including such exotic and faraway places as South Korea, Israel, Japan and Cuba, performed on the stages of the TriCity. The works of great masters of the theatre were staged, among them those of: Peter Brook, Elizabeth LeCompte, Luk Perceval, Lew Dodin, Eimuntas Nekrošius, Oskaras Koršunovas, Roberto Ciulli, Robert Sturua and many others. Performances are accompanied by meetings with their creators: directors, actors, playwrights. The festival becomes a natural platform to for meetings and intellectual exchanges between artists and people of cultures from around the globe. The event is accompanied by a contest for Best Polish Staging of Shakespeare's Work of the Season with theatres from around the country competing for the award – the Golden Yorrick. A number of former winners have gone on to perform at other Shakespeare festivals in Europe and the United States.
