Novi Sad is a city of culture where differences unite rather than divide. Alongside its rich cultural offerings, Novi Sad showcases its multiculturalism, history, and urban spirit through artistic expression, museum exhibitions, temporary installations, street art, projects, and events held throughout the year. Much of this is owed to the creative potential of young people, who generously channel their energy into strengthening the city’s identity.
Novi Sad knows how to cherish its intangible heritage—first and foremost, the lifestyle and hospitality of its citizens, followed by its history and tangible artifacts, which visitors can explore in cultural institutions across the city. Matica srpska, the City Museum, the Museum of Vojvodina, the Space Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Vojvodina, the City Library, the Serbian National Theatre, the Novi Sad Theatre, the Youth Theatre, the Gallery Square, and the Synagogue are just some of the venues that can spark the curiosity of any young person.
In 2022, Novi Sad held the title of European Capital of Culture. Its rich cultural program runs intensively throughout the year at various locations across the city. Cultural stations have been revitalized to expand the city’s creative and cultural sector: the Creative District, Svilara and Eđšeg, Bukovac, as well as the newly opened cultural stations in Rumenka and Stepanovićevo, the mobile cultural station Karavan, and the children’s cultural station Mlin. These are hubs of artistic expression for the young and the young at heart.
