More concretely the following events will take place:

SPOT Film: a film festival that will take place on 1-2 May and will focus on new talented film-makers from the entire Nordic region.

“It’s not tomorrow, but today that Aarhus must start the fight to establish itself on the European cultural map, as a growth generator or as vehicle for knowledge and innovation. The specific goals are many – but the currency is common: music, film and interactive media; cultural and professional siblings,” said SPOT-director Gunnar Madsen.

 


SPOT Festival will take place on 3-4th May in Aarhus. Tickets can be purchased here.
