- AgoraEU and the Future of Culture in Europe: A Common Cause
Since May 2025, Fundació Primavera Sound has been a proud member of Culture Action Europe (CAE) — the leading European network advocating for the role of culture in public policy, democratic dialogue, and the construction of a sustainable, just and creative Europe. As an active part of this community, we’ve contributed to a historic achievement: the European Commission’s proposal to double the budget for culture and creativity in the upcoming Multiannual Financial Framework (2028–2034). The new AgoraEU programme envisions a record €8.6 billion, twice the amount currently allocated to Creative Europe, MEDIA and CERV. This result is the outcome of a coordinated mobilisation across Europe. In Spain alone, over 150 organisations and artists have signed an open letter to the Ministry of Finance calling for a firm commitment to culture in Europe. Similar actions have taken place in France, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Sweden, Italy and beyond — showing a shared determination to put culture at the heart of Europe’s future. - Primavera Sound joins the official programme of MONDIACULT 2025

This recognition confirms the role of the festival, the professional meeting and the foundation as spaces where culture moves, and in particular recognises a model in which it acts as an element for social transformation and fairer development. - Primavera Sound Foundation supports the Barcelona NSC 2025 of the European Youth Parliament

We have normalised seeing war, but not listening to it. We live in a world saturated with violent images. Hypervisibility has anaesthetised us: we see, but we do not react. Sound, on the other hand, can still move us. At Primavera Sound, sound is emotion, connection, pleasure. But sound can… Lee más: Unsilence Gaza - The Fundació Primavera Sound inaugurates the third edition of «Create your own Festival» with an educational and creative focus
