European Capitals of Culture 2026: Oulu, FInland and Trenčín, Slovakia

Arto häkkilä, Scotch Mist Every year since 1985, the cultural grand poobahs of the European Union have designated one to three of the continent's cities as Capitals of Culture, focusing not only on their own cultural offerings but also allowing them to organize a series of wider cultural events (many with a strong pan-European dimension) - which bring in considerable additional revenue; foster urban renewal; and raise their international profiles and images. Since the first was Athens (then…

Greenland rising: what´s all the fuss about the world´s largest island?

posteriori In recent months, with all the recent absurd and offensive bullying about the United States somehow acquiring Greenland “one way or the other,” along with the territory´s March election, the world´s attention has been focused as never before on this massive island (at 836,330 square miles, bigger than Alaska and California combined and almost nine times the size of the United Kingdom), with a population of just 57,000. Technically it´s part of North America but deeply European in…

Eurovision Media Centre Disc-riding 24-year-old Nemo having made history last year as the first non-binary winner of Eurovision for “The Code,” yesterday the 69th edition of world’s largest, longest, and perhaps most anticipated/beloved music competition came back to the country where it was born and first won the contest (with the lovely old chestnut "Refrain"), in 1956. Switzerland´s third largest city (pop. around 177,000). It must´ve been the most exciting thing to happen here since,…

European Capitals of Culture 2025: Chemnitz, Gorizia, and Nova Gorica

Ralf Steinberger, Krzysztof Golik, Eleassar Annually for the last 40 years, the cultural poobahs of the European Union have designated one or more of the continent's cities (and as of 2022 it's been three rather than two), as Capitals of Culture, focusing on their own cultural offerings and allowing them to organize a series of wider cultural events (many with a strong pan-European dimension) - which bring in considerable additional revenue; foster urban renewal; and raise their…

I will be attending the WTM and look forward to meeting up with old friends and new. Accessible Travel is a huge yet largely untapped market, I invite colleagues to send questions to me regarding this market as I am giving a seminar on the topic on Travel Agents Day and would like to address as many issues as possible in the short time the WTM allows. My seminar will be as interactive as possible, no preaching from the pulpit! I am also available for the consultancy networking session the same day. Questions to wtm@disabledaccessibletravel.com (online from 1st September).
