About

OMG, Franck! is a one-week festival during Basel's art week — turning the Franck Areal in Basel into a living canvas where music, radio, art, performance, fashion, and food collide in real time. For six days, artists, collectives, and communities co-create a temporary world: a place to gather, reflect, and let it all spill into celebration.

Founded in 2024, OMG, Franck! started with a simple idea — to give emerging and established voices the same room, the same system, and the same crowd, during one of the art world's most charged weeks at the Franck Areal. OMG, Franck! is a dynamic alternative to the main fair context, bringing together music, club culture, performance, fashion, food, and art. It features multiple stages, exhibition zones, a listening room, a radio studio, pop-up kitchen, and smaller rooms for close-up moments — all running at once, all week.

OMG, Franck! is a collaboration between Förderverein Franck, Radio X Basel, and Tanzhaus Basel.
