In an interview with Europa Press, the Minister of Culture outlined his strategic plan to protect culture through live music venues. These venues play a unique role that large festivals cannot: serving as a launching pad for new groups and a space for local artistic experimentation. The plan will be developed in coordination with the autonomous communities and will address measures regarding subsidies, leasing, and local cultural promotion, in line with the Ministry’s overall vision in its recent Cultural Rights Plan, which includes 146 measures with a horizon up to 2030.
The minister also stated that he seeks to strengthen public policies such as the Youth Cultural Bonus and the expansion of access to artistic education, as well as a greater state presence in the protection of cultural heritage and diversity.
