What is BRUGES 2030?

Projects

As we prepare to submit our candidacy, we intend to set up a number of projects revolving around ‘The art of Conversation’. We will also collaborate with other organisations and enthusiasts who want to work on this theme.

Bruges 2030:
The art of Conversation

Bruges would like to become European Cultural Capital in 2030.

If we want to face the challenges our society today brings, we will need to talk. About profound truths, casual moments, intense emotions. With each other, and with ourselves. Somewhere along the line, between the internet revolution, globalisation and the pandemic, we seem to have lost the gift of conversation. But if there is anything that brings people together, connects and touches our core, it is art and culture.

That is why the theme of Bruges 2030 will be:
The art of Conversation.
