Cáceres City Candidate for European Capital of Culture 2031
A transnational and inclusive candidacy to rethink and explore Europe from Extremadura.
Join us in this new dialogue.
Cáceres 2031 is not just a project for a city, but for an entire region, offering Europe the opportunity to rediscover itself.
The Capital of Culture project we are presenting is not limited to the capital, Cáceres, but encompasses a transformation of the entire region, extending throughout Extremadura and even beyond.
Cáceres 2031 extends throughout Europe through Mediterranean and Atlantic alliances that are already underway.
Cáceres 2031 is a consortium formed by the Regional Government of Extremadura, the provincial councils of Cáceres and Badajoz, and the Cáceres City Council, with the aim of the city achieving the European Capital of Culture title.
Regional, provincial, and local institutions, organizations, and civil society are involved in a bid that aims to demonstrate how culture drives territorial development, social cohesion, and innovation.
2031
Transcultura is the concept that articulates this project (which is now also yours). From the Latin trans- (meaning “to go beyond”), transcultura invites us to cross borders and disciplines, to transform collectively. Its roots lie in transhumance, which is an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and which for centuries has united territories and cultures through movement and care.
