A weekend full of culture: European hubs in the hill country

This year, a remarkable event is taking place in the picturesque region of Hügelland near Graz, which bears the title “European Capitals of Culture Visit”. For the tenth time, the Achteck cultural association is organizing this two-day festival, which not only celebrates local traditions but also promotes cultural exchange between different European cities.

The event features a diverse mix of music, literature and visuals created specifically for this event. Those interested can look forward to a trip between the Salzkammergut, Tartu in Estonia and Bodø in Norway. These cultural highlights reflect the diversity and richness of European cultures and invite visitors to gain new perspectives and experiences.

Diverse program

The program includes various performances, including traditional yodeling and modern performances such as Joyken. This combination of traditional and contemporary elements is intended not only to celebrate the cultural roots of the region, but also to build bridges to other cultures.

The organizers emphasize the importance of such events to promote intercultural dialogue and raise awareness of different European cultures. The exchange of art and literature creates a space in which creative ideas can flourish.

The event takes place over a weekend which attracts both locals and visitors. The program is expected to bring people from different backgrounds together, creating a community atmosphere. People who are interested in European cultures will definitely get their money's worth.

By promoting such events, the cultural heritage of the region is also strengthened, which in turn establishes Graz and the surrounding area as a cultural attraction. The exchange between cities and cultures is of great importance in order to strengthen awareness of European identity.
