Code:ART 2025 Festival

Next date: Thursday, October 16, 2025 | 06:00 PM to 10:00 PM

Code: ART 2025 is a free, interactive media art festival that transforms downtown Palo Alto into a dynamic playground of light, sound, and imagination from October 16–25, 2025, produced by the City of Palo Alto Public Art Program. The festival opens with five site-specific installations—featuring a centerpiece at Lytton Plaza and four hands-on art experiences that offer a unique opportunity to meet and engage with the artists in person—on view October 16–18.

Nightly, from October 16 to 25, visitors can also enjoy an immersive 8-story light show designed by three globally recognized 3D projection mapping artists who will transform the Palo Alto City Hall façade. Code:ART invites you to explore, play, and connect through boundary-pushing public art that celebrates Palo Alto’s spirit of creativity and innovation.
