This year\u2019s edition of Timi\u0219oara City Celebration<\/em>, the event that invites the public to discover the city through music, heritage, gastronomy, communities, art, and urban experiences, is scheduled to take place between July 31 and August 3.<\/p>\n

The theme of this year’s edition is Diversity, \u201cone of the values that defines Timi\u0219oara’s identity and the way the city is experienced by both residents and visitors,\u201d the organizers explained.<\/p>\n

As part of the program, Irish pop-rock band The Script will perform in Timi\u0219oara on August 1, with a concert on I.C. Br\u0103tianu Boulevard. With hit songs such as Hall of Fame, The Man Who Can’t Be Moved, Breakeven, Nothing, and Superheroes, the Dublin-born band has captivated audiences around the world and amassed billions of streams across online music platforms.<\/p>\n

The event will be held in the I.C. Br\u0103tianu Park, the Civic Park, and more than 30 other locations in the city. Admission to all 100+ events included in the 2026 program will be free of charge.<\/p>\n

“Last year’s formula, when we organized the City Celebration, one of the flagship legacy events of the European Capital of Culture year, together with Timi\u0219oara Day, proved to be a success. That is why we are continuing it this year as well. For four days, the entire city will be in celebration mode and ready to welcome Romanian and international visitors, just as it did in previous editions. We have already begun promoting the summer events both nationally and in neighboring countries because we want more and more people to discover Timi\u0219oara’s energy and cultural offering,” mayor Dominic Fritz said.<\/p>\n

In 2025, more than 84,600 participants attended 197 cultural events held throughout the city for the City Celebration, while over 65,000 spectators enjoyed the concerts and activities at the main venue, the organizers said. MIKA and James Bay were among the artists performing at the event.<\/p>\n
