| Summary: | The cities of Central and Eastern Europe have recognized those trends, which are already visible in the
Western Europe on cultural sphere. The Western European cities generate development of society and
economy based on culture. These trends came up with the age of knowledge-based economy. The cultural
economy and the creative economy are spreading more and more in the Western Europe. The progress is

Culture program. Participation in this process has become a strategic weapon for cities seeking to attract
cultural visitors. Nowadays, the event has certainly developed beyond its cultural origins. It is becoming a
part of urban economic and cultural revitalization. Since 2007 Central and Eastern European cities also
can be the title holder of the European Capital of Culture. The first city was Sibiu in Romania in Central
and Eastern Europe. I examine the impacts of the European Capital of Culture program on the local
economy and society in the cities in Central and Eastern Europe. |
