In an anarchist society, the Babel Proms would be the continuation of what is now the BBC Proms, as revised by Canadian music project Babel. Classical music would continue to be performed in London's Royal Albert Hall, except other artists representing other countries and genres would be eligible to perform as well. This turns the iconic classical music festival into a celebration of sounds and colours. Every fifth season, the festival goes global with the International Gala, which expands beyond classical music. Dance and theatrical performances, including opera and ballet, would be performed at the Royal Opera House. Initially it would seem ambitious to expand further into sports but who knows?
