Novi Sad is the city that lays on the banks of the Danube river and whose diverse and rich cultural heritage, interculturality and European values present its backbone for three centuries.
During 2019, Novi Sad was the European Youth Capital, and one of the first cities outside the European Union that has borne the title of the European Capital of Culture.
The biggest cultural centre in Vojvodina and one of the most important cultural centres of the Republic of Serbia was the centre of Serbian culture, policy and social life as far back as the 18th and 19th centuries, which explains the name ’Serbian Athens’.
The Serbian National Theatre, the oldest theatre, the Matica Srpska, the oldest literature, cultural and research institution in Serbia, numerous museums, private and public galleries, libraries, cultural centres and other cultural institutions, as well as the University with 19 Faculties and specialised departments with lectures in languages of national minorities are located in Novi Sad.
It is the capital city of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, the second largest city in Serbia, with population between 300.000 and 400.000 people.
The symbol of Novi Sad is the Petrovaradin Fortress, whose construction began far back in 1692 and marked the beginning of Novi Sad. Today, in addition to cultural-historic importance, the Fortress is the place where the EXIT, one of the best music festivals in Europe, is being held.
