IKF Award 2026 – Culture Connects People
The ‘Freiburger Leiter’ award ceremony for outstanding artistic achievement.
The presentation of the ‘Freiburger Leiter’ is an integral part of the IKF. This year, the award is specifically aimed at our newcomers: with the IKF Award, we recognise an outstanding piece of artistic work that stands out for its quality, originality and distinctive style.
Through this award, we aim to support artists on their journey and open up new opportunities for them. The prize offers a valuable platform to present their work to a wider audience, gain visibility and establish themselves firmly within the cultural scene.
The prize comprises an award and a performance at the Swiss Culture Fair in Thun.
The winner of the ‘Freiburger Leiter’ 2027 will be announced here shortly!
