Emilia‑Romagna regional cultural and urban hub funding

Entities: Regione Emilia‑Romagna · San Giovannino Church (Reggio Emilia) · Comune di Scandiano · Irene Priolo · Comune di Fontanelice

Overview

In late July 2026, the Emilia‑Romagna regional council announced several cultural and creative‑sector investments. These included a €15,000 grant for a youth hub in Gambettola, €45,000 for a Giuseppe Mengoni project in Fontanelice, and €35,000 for an urban‑regeneration and climate-resilience programme in Mordano. The council also launched two training calls totalling €6.2 million—€4 million for technical courses in music and theatre, and €2.2 million for cinema-related training.

In early August, the council approved €187,000 for restoration contracts in Reggio Emilia, Forlì, and Castelnovo ne’ Monti. On 7 August, the region awarded its first urban‑hub grants, allocating €560,000 each to Sassuolo, Imola, Scandiano, Ferrara, Cento, Tresignana, and Codigoro, bringing the 2026-2027 programme commitment to €2.24 million. These grants focus on digital and ecological transitions, pedestrian-cycle routes, and public-space improvements.

In Sassuolo, a five-year protocol was signed to create an intermodal transport hub linking the Sassuolo-Modena and Sassuolo-Reggio Emilia stations via bus, cycling, and park-and-ride facilities. The regional government contributed €552,000 to the “Urbano: l’Hub di Sassuolo” programme, totaling €800,000 for the project. Additionally, the region allocated €205,000 to Sarsina for a territorial hub project intended to integrate cultural heritage, nature, and local commerce to support tourism and economic growth.
