In one month, Nova Gorica and Gorizia will become the Europe’s first borderless Capital of Culture , highlighting an extraordinary display of cross-border unity.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

History will be made in just one month as Nova Gorica and Gorizia<\/strong> will become the first-ever cities to jointly hold<\/strong> the European Capital of Culture (ECoC) title, embodying the spirit of European unity. With major investments<\/strong> in cross-border infrastructure and cultural initiatives, the region has been transformed under the inspiring slogan Go Borderless<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 400 events<\/strong> are featured in the official programme, along with countless more in the accompanying schedule, making 2025 a truly extraordinary year for both Slovenia and Italy. The stage is set for a year of cultural brilliance, with a new amphitheatre<\/strong> taking shape, the railway station undergoing a major renovation<\/strong> and a vibrant lineup of screenings, concerts and dance performances<\/strong> awaiting in both cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four grand highlights<\/strong> punctuate the year: the grand opening ceremony<\/strong> in February, the March for Europe<\/strong> in May, cross-border culinary delights<\/strong> in September and the enchanting joint festive lighting<\/strong> in December. Beyond these key moments, visitors can explore smuggler trails, embrace innovation, reflect on the memories of war and peace, and engage in eco-conscious activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the first-ever transnational bid for the title<\/strong>, this joint application was uniquely compelling. It\u2019s invigorating to witness a European Capital of Culture<\/strong> defined by an intentionally open border<\/strong>, celebrating the rich heritage and diversity on both sides. The concept of a \u201cborderless\u201d<\/strong> capital \u2013 serving as a living laboratory for fostering deeper connections and cooperation across nations while navigating multiple languages and political systems \u2013 feels profoundly timely and forward-thinking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
