Festival Z has been nominated for the 2025 Premis Gestió Cultural

Festival Z has been nominated for the 2025 Premis Gestió Cultural (2025 Cultural Management Awards) in the Impact category, which are presented by the Associació de Professionals de la Gestió Cultural de Catalunya (Association of Cultural Management Professionals of Catalonia) with the aim of promoting, raising awareness and highlighting the value of the cultural management profession in our country. The awards recognise individuals, projects and organisations that stand out for their excellence, innovation and contribution to the cultural and social sector.

The Impact category rewards initiatives that have had a significant effect on their environment, whether social, cultural or in the creation and consolidation of communities. Festival Z shares its nomination with the Xarxa de Pobles Creatius (Network of Creative Villages), which brings together fourteen municipalities from four regions with a firm commitment to creation and links with the territory, and with Periferia Cimarronas, a solidarity economy project promoted by black and Afro-descendant people who understand culture as a fundamental right and an act of resistance.

The Festival Z has been nominated for its work as an exhibition space and springboard for companies and artists under the age of thirty, giving them the opportunity to showcase their projects in the rehearsal, creation or finished stages, and contributing to their professionalisation and projection within the cultural sector.

The Premis Gestió Cultural awards ceremony will take place on Monday 20, October at Sala Paral·lel 62 in Barcelona.
