Turin is a candidate

Our application to become European Capital of Culture stems from a desire to look to the future without forgetting the roots that have made our city unique.

It’s not just a question of promoting the rich cultural heritage and panoply of artistic expression that distinguish the city, but of creating a laboratory for ideas, creativity and experimentation where tradition and innovation can join forces to imagine possible new futures.

The path towards the candidacy is a shared journey that brings together individuals, institutions, businesses, associations and communities. It is an invitation to take part in a collective project where culture becomes the beating heart of a new form of citizenship, capable of transforming everyday gestures into experiences of growth and beauty.

Turin is looking ahead and together we are ready to write its future.
