Interrupt This Program is a Canadian documentary series, which premiered November 6, 2015 on CBC Television.

A five-part documentary series about the role of art as a tool of political protest and social change, each episode centres on the creative community in a world city recovering from some form of social crisis, such as war, disaster or political upheaval. The episodes are set in Beirut, Kiev, Athens, Port-au-Prince and Medellin. Each episode profiles several young artists working in the city, including at least one expatriate Canadian. The series aims to change perceptions about the cities and allow artists to tell their own stories.
