Show Notes

On February 15th, Trenčín concluded its three-day European Capital of Culture opening ceremony — a milestone moment that transformed this historic Slovak city into a vibrant stage for contemporary and folk art, performance, and community celebration. Against the dramatic backdrop of Trenčín Castle, centuries of history met bold artistic vision, as public squares filled with light installations, music, and thousands of visitors from across Europe. In this second episode of our two-part report, we explore that extraordinary weekend through the voices of those who brought it to life. You’ll hear from the artists who shaped its creative vision, the organizers who turned years of planning into reality, and the dedicated volunteers who helped make Trenčín not only beautiful, but truly welcoming. We’ll also discover how this event reflects the spirit of European cooperation and unity.
