Biennial festival of the European Commission gathering in Brussels the projects, collectives and public bodies linked to the New European Bauhaus initiative (sustainability, inclusion and aesthetic quality of the built environment). It runs in three strands: Forum (policy debate), Fair (prototypes and projects) and Fest (cultural programme), with satellite events across Europe. The 2026 edition focused on democratic engagement and affordable housing. It is a well-funded institutional showcase; the tension lies in telling rooted projects from image operations.
