The Welt-Kindertheater-Fest (World Festival of Children's Theatre) bills itself as the first international children's theater festival featuring exclusively performances by children. The first festival took place in Lingen (Ems), Germany in 1990. Since then, it has been staged on a bi-annual basis, the location alternating between its "home town" Lingen (Ems), and various cities around the world.
