Tallinn – the European capital of culture in 2011

Creative Metropoles

In 2011 the Estonian capital becomes the European Capital of Culture. Awarded by the European Commission for more than two decades, this title is more than just honorary – it gives a city and an entire nation the chance, over the space of a year, to show Europe and the world its creative side and to tell stories that its residents and everyone in the country, recognise and embrace as their own. In that sense, 2011 will see the biggest story in Estonian history being told in Tallinn.
