The Liepāja 2027 Foundation invites professionals who shape the culture horizon in Liepāja, South Kurzeme and Kuldīga to submit their cultural and artistic initiatives to the Liepāja 2027 open programme, offering the opportunity to integrate existing events into the Liepāja – European Capital of Culture 2027 programme.<\/p>
The open programme aims to broaden public engagement and strengthen international cooperation by providing a platform for local, independent and informal initiatives. It is expected to bring together 30 to 40 events across Liepāja, the South Kurzeme region and the Kuldīga region, contributing to a more diverse and internationally connected cultural landscape.<\/p>
Selected participants will have the opportunity to feature their events within the official Liepāja 2027 calendar. While the open programme does not provide financial support, it offers visibility, international context and inclusion within the wider (un)rest programme framework.<\/p>
Applications will be accepted and evaluated in three rounds: by 1 June 2026, 1 October 2026 and 1 March 2027. All submissions will be reviewed by the appointed jury, and events that best meet the evaluation criteria will be selected for inclusion.<\/p>
