Europa Nostra turns 60 at the end of 2023 and they want to celebrate with all of you in our beloved, but endangered World Heritage City of Venice. The President Cecilia Bartoli will be with there in person and many other high-profile guests and supporters, including the highest representatives of EU Institutions, are ready to join in this conference.

On 28 September, after 60th anniversary ceremonial General Assembly to be held at the Scuola Grande di San Rocco with stunning paintings by Tintoretto, it will be hosted by one of the generous and devoted members in a fabulous Palazzo on the Grand Canal for a candle light evening to sing “Happy birthday to you, Europa Nostra”.

The previous day, 27 September, is reserved for the Heritage Excellence Fair with presentations by the 2023 winners of the European Heritage Awards / Europa Nostra Awards, while 29 September is reserved for the Policy Agora followed in the evening by the European Heritage Awards Ceremony. The meetings will take place in venues belonging not only to our shared cultural and historic heritage, but also to contemporary creativity.

There will be free time to enjoy the city and its rich cultural programmes and offers, but also to participate in some exclusive initiatives that will allow you to discover unknown campi and calli. One of them: Alberto Toso Fei, the Venetian storyteller, and Desi Marangon, an epigraphist, will organise a Treasure Hunt to ancient graffiti in Venice: culture, heritage and fun are guaranteed!

The Summit has the support of the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.
