Évora 27

Alentejo

In 2027, Évora will be a European Capital of Culture, alongside Liepāja in Latvia.
For a year, both cities will showcase Europe’s rich cultural heritage to the world. At the heart of the programme is VAGAR, a concept deeply rooted in the Alentejo way of life. We’re excited and ready to welcome you—to celebrate European culture together.
