AR&PA Iberian Biennial turns its focus to Cultural Tourism

This year, AR&PA Biennial for Cultural Heritage has transformed its platform to focus on Cultural Tourism.

AR-PA TURISMO CULTURAL will be held in 2024 as an evolution of the AR&PA Art and Heritage Restoration Fair, which was founded in 1998 in Valladolid.

Over these 26 years and 14 editions we have been growing gradually, adapting to the times and evolving. First, from an Art and Heritage Fair to a Heritage Restoration and Management Fair, then to a Heritage Management and Restoration Biennial incorporating new sections such as AR&PA Forum, Open by AR&PA, AR&PA For All, AR&PA Awards, AR&PA International Congress or AR&PA with the Family…, and later to the Iberian Biennial of Cultural Heritage incorporating the Portuguese partner Spira.

From 15 to 17 November 2024, AR-PA TURISMO CULTURAL 2024 is scheduled to be held at the Valladolid Fairgrounds. This event is promoted by the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Sport of the Junta de Castilla y León and is made up of a set of sections (AR-PA Institutions, AR-PA Business, AR-PA Forum and AR-PA Family), established progressively throughout the successive editions of AR&PA, Heritage Biennial, whose contents in this 2024 edition are increased with the incorporation of the cultural promotion and artistic creation sector, as well as the tourism sector, an economic activity and social projection in which the legacy of Cultural Heritage and the cultural and artistic offer play a significant role.
