Aalborg Municipality has officially submitted its application to become a European Capital of Culture in 2032. The bid, which follows 500 days of preparation and includes input from over 3,000 citizens, features 116 project suggestions designed to foster community and international cooperation. An international expert jury is scheduled to review the application in November to determine which Danish cities advance in the selection process.

Simultaneously, Helsingør has launched a campaign for the same title, seeking regional support through cross-border cooperation with participants from Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.
