Would you like to help make LOV2030 a reality? Check out the vacancies and apply before 24 January 2026.
Positive impact
European Capital of Culture 2030 is an opportunity to tackle challenges together, such as the climate, growing inequality, poverty or polarisation, where people do not agree with each other. Culture is our secret weapon. It brings citizens, regional municipalities, organisations, knowledge institutes, associations, entrepreneurs and companies together. This way, Leuven and the region can grow into an exemplary region for all of Europe.
The entire process will also have a positive impact on culture, welfare, the economy, tourism, the hospitality industry and more, both during the preparations and after the festive year itself. If we win, 2030 will be a top year for culture for all residents of the region and visitors from far and near. We are aiming for 3 million national and international visitors.
Become a partner of LOV2030
The road to becoming European Capital of Culture is a huge opportunity to really set something in motion by forging new, sometimes radically new connections with partners both known and unknown. It is a chance to confront our blind spot. LOV stands for a boundless pursuit of a better future for Leuven, the region and of course Europe. We want to show that things can be done differently. Will you join us?
