Digital Festival Producer

Theatre Wales (MTW) is looking for a Digital Festival Producer to lead the development and delivery of Cardiff’s first Digital Opera Festival in March 2027. We need someone who is excited by the creative possibilities of digital technology and who thrives on bringing artists, audiences and partners together to realise ambitious, forward-thinking work. This role is about shaping how opera can be experienced today – across screens, public spaces and live events – and helping digital opera reach new and diverse audiences.

We want to hear what you can bring to the Festival. You might be an experienced producer, project manager, or creative practitioner with a background in digital, immersive or screen-based work. You may have experience working across multiple partners and venues, managing complex programmes, or supporting artists to explore new technologies and formats. What matters most is that you are passionate about innovation in the arts, confident in delivering high-quality projects, and motivated by the challenge of re-imagining opera for the digital age.

This is an opportunity to play a vital role in a pioneering international festival, working closely with artists, technologists and cultural organisations to help shape the future of opera and make it accessible to audiences everywhere.
