An Artistic 
experience

 

This will be the first global summit for visual thinkers, and what better way to mark that, than to bring in a completely new experience?

 

 

The whole summit will be interwoven with dance, music, theatre and painting. It will create feelings and memories that will live on in our hearts, long after we check out of the venue and the screens.

 

 

 

A Basque 
experience

 

Basque country has a very unique and amazing culture, a dreamy landscape, great food and wonderful cities. At it’s heart Bilbao boasts a green and hospitable environment for our shared experience. And we will make sure you can taste, smell, see and touch it all from closeby (even if you are joining online :) )! 

 

Bilbao the capital of Bizkaia/Biscay located on the Eastern Atlantic seaboard, stands at the heart of a metropolis with over 1,000,000 inhabitants with important transport infrastructures that provide connections to the main cities in Europe by land, sea and air.

We offer you two options:


Txikigune (children's area) (age 5-12 years) An experience for the little ones, they will be inside the Terminal in a space suitable for them, they will have a monitor who will be energizing different activities, games, art, crafts, songs, and if the weather permits, water games!

Gazte Experience (13-17 years old) An incredible experience for older children, with guided visits to different places in Bilbao and its surroundings, such as the Hanging Bridge of Bizkaia, a trip along the Basque coast and recreational activities in different areas, always accompanied by monitors.

In both cases, this ticket includes the welcome cocktail, the closing ceremony, the afternoon of the 29th in Bilbao, and the Party (Euskal Jaia) of the same day, as well as the bus transportation.

*(During this day there will be no monitors and the responsible for the minors will be their parents).

 

You will be able to purchase tickets for minors once you have registered.

 

The Space

 

Berlin is hip? Forget Berlin! The new Berlin is Zorrozaurre island, where La Terminal is located. This old factory transformed into a space for cultural and creative industries. It was designed to promote artistic manifestations. And…as an added bonus: WE CAN DRAW ON THE WALLS!! 

 

 DISCOVERY!

This Global Summit is organised by Muxote Potolo Bat (local-host) in collaboration with IFVP and EVP

And from these two entities is deployed a local and international team that will make this Summit possible. A connecting team, co-creator, builder of the space, the scenography, the content... the whole experience. And it will design the connection bridge between what happens in Bilbao (onsite) and the people who will connect from different parts of the world (online) creating a truly hybrid experience.


We also have the support of various public institutions and private companies.
