2026 Creative Europe call for European cooperation projects open
This call will support projects carrying out a broad spectrum of activities and initiatives involving artists and stakeholders active in different cultural and creative sectors.
With a budget of around €60 million, the action will foster cooperation between organisations active in the field of culture, increasing the cross-border dimension of creation and circulation of European artistic content. It will also encourage the development, experimentation, dissemination, and application of new and innovative practices.
The action is expected to support around 150 projects.
The deadline for applications is 5 May 2026.
Eligibility
European cooperation projects are open to all the cultural and creative sectors. However, considering that this action is part of the Culture strand of the Creative Europe programme, projects with exclusive audio-visual content and/or exclusively composed of organisations from the audio-visual sector are not eligible to apply.
For questions, assistance related to the programme and help cooperating with organisations in other countries, Creative Europe Desks are in place in every participating country.
