Arts Festivals Policy & Co-Operation
Our focus on arts festivals stems from the recognition that they can serve as key spaces for cultural exchange and dialogue.
We recognise that arts festivals in Europe play an important role for nurturing mutual understanding, encouraging artistic expression and experimentation, and fostering cultural participation.
By forming strategic partnerships with festival associations across Europe and through policy advocacy, we connect festivals with municipalities, public authorities, the arts community, and the wider public.
