From 2024, a nine-person Federal Performing Arts Jury will recommend award winners in this field to the FOC.

In the years from 2021 to 2023, the existing Federal Dance and Theatre Juries recommended to the FOC the winners of the Swiss Performing Arts Awards, which bring together the fields of dance and theatre. The new, nine-person Federal Performing Arts Jury includes three members each from the two former juries together with three new members to ensure that the field’s wide range of disciplines is covered. Its Chair is Simone Toendury, previously a member of the Federal Dance Jury. The members additionally ensure that all regions of Switzerland are represented. They are elected for a two-year term, and each may serve a maximum of six years. Photos and biographies of the Federal Performing Arts Jury: Federal Performing Arts Jury (schweizerkulturpreise.ch)
