1/6 Background information

    Oulu is the European Capital of Culture in 2026.

    Step into the European Capital of Culture year 2026 by answering this preliminary questionnaire.

    We would like to hear your thoughts about the European Capital of Culture programme, so please feel free to use your creativity when sharing your ideas and perspectives!

    The aim of this questionnaire is to find places from around Oulu, where in 2026 we could create an element, area, place, or an artwork that strengthens the sense of community through arts and culture. It’s important, that the art or activities in the areas will tell the story of the area, perhaps of something previously lost, that has in the past created meaningfulness, well-being, and sense of community to these places and their residents.

    The questionnaire is open from January 9 to January 31. Answering the questionnaire will take approximately 5-10 minutes.

    This questionnaire is published in co-operation by the Urban and Environmental Services of the City of Oulu and Oulu Culture Foundation. The questionnaire responses will be used in the implementation of Oulu2026.

    Together we are more – let’s be creative together!
