Serbian Athens has become one of the most successful European Capitals of Culture. Novi Sad has successfully brought 2022, the most important year in the 21st century for the history of the city\u2019s cultural development, to an end. Thanks to the Melina Mercouri International Prize, which the European Commission awards to the most successful European Capitals of Culture, Novi Sad will once again celebrate its authentic interculturality through Do\u010dek<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u2018Summarising the results of the largest European project in culture, we can only proudly conclude that the effects of the undertaken activities are permanent. We managed to solve very important long-standing issues. Novi Sad received a new building of the Music and Ballet School and the first real concert hall, a new face of the Suburbium of the Petrovaradin Fortress, the District and cultural stations that achieved the goal of cultural decentralisation through active work. In our work, we included figures from different spheres of the social communities and together with them, we created a cultural policy, as well as programmes that were recognised and evaluated as the best at the European level. With Do\u010dek that we are announcing today, we are entering the final stage of the European Capital of Culture project. This, however, does not mean that there will be less culture in our city, we will continue to develop it,\u2019 said the member of the City Council for Culture, Dalibor Ro\u017ei\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
