Description

Placemaking Week Europe is an annual festival that brings together 700+ placemakers, urbanists, city officials, and community leaders from across Europe and beyond. Placemaking Week Europe is created in the spirit of collaboration and inspiration and it has proven to be a vital platform to share best practices, foster meaningful collaborations across borders, and to experience the host city’s places, and initiatives firsthand. We provide a friendly environment surrounded by brilliant minds.
The themes
This year’s festival will explore 4 overarching themes that correlate with these approaches to placemaking, as well as with the host city’s distinct goals. We aim to bring together knowledge and perspectives from around the world to explore:
Designing Cities for All – Valuing diversity in urban design
Heritage Reimagined - New life for historic centres
Places of well-being – Mid-sized cities in today’s world
Connected Journeys – Rethinking mobility across scales
