Architecture and heritage, dance, music and avant-garde performance come together in a unique festival that brings together, each year, choreographic creations inspired by the Camino de Santiago. Works by very heterogeneous choreographers and companies that embrace an artistic breadth that is also, in a way, a space for learning and cultural encounter.

Coinciding with Creativity and Wellbeing Week (19-25 May 2025), Leeds Arts Health and Wellbeing Network (LAHWN) has launched its new Creative Health in Leeds report. The research was funded by Leeds City Council Culture Programmes Team as part of the legacy planning from LEEDS2023.

Via Po in Turin is preparing for a day of celebration. On 25 May 2025, Turin's historic street will come alive on the occasion of the Feast of Neighbours #VersoTorino2033, celebrating its reopening after redevelopment work. An event that is part of Turin's candidature as European Capital of Culture 2033.

There will be three European capitals of culture in 2030. One will be designated by Cyprus, the other by Belgium, and the third will be chosen between Nikšić (Montenegro) and Lviv (Ukraine). On the short list are three cities for Belgium: Leuven, Molenbeek, and Namur.  Larnaka and Lemesos have been shortlisted for the title of European Capital of Culture 2030 in Cyprus. 

We, cultural and media players who benefit from EU funds ask the European Commission and its Creative Europe funding programme, to take the threats caused by the growing power of digital capitalism represented by tech giants into consideration and to take a leading role in tackling them. EcocNews, as an  international news and media outlet dealing with culture and Europe, supports and endorses the open letter “Rethinking Digital Practices and Spaces”.
