Opening Ceremony Ø BORDERS
Cooltura / Opening Ceremony Ø BORDERS
About
Maybe we are taking for granted the ability to move without borders all across Europe, to be free and choose how, what and whom to love. The freedom, love, and creativity of the young people of Varaždin led the whole Europe to our town where we will, in a modern way, combine the classical and the modern, the past and the current, the local and the global.
What is the correlation between hip-hop and baroque music, Vienna and Varaždin? CAN U HANDEL THIS? (Yes, this is spelled right and you will find out why at the Opening Ceremony). Young artists from Northern Croatia will show that fight and unity are essential in creating the Europe of the new generations – green, resistant, and with ZERø BORDERS!
