The dream of a small town seeking to achieve a great goal is the driving force behind Pafos’ bid to become European Capital of Culture 2017. Pafos feels that the time has come to shape itself into a unique mosaic comprising its cultural identity and creativity which will contribute to Europe’s diversity, as well as to the enrichment and promotion of the collective European culture. This task would not be possible without the blend of geography, politics and culture, for it is these elements which have influenced the fate and role of Cyprus for centuries. Under the title of "Linking Continents-Bridging Cultures", our programme is aimed at summarizing what Pafos really is and what the city aims to achieve with inspiration, passion and much determination.

By presenting this Application by Valletta to host the European Capital of Culture in 2018 on behalf of the Valletta Local Council, the Valletta 2018 Foundation is reaching the end of a process, and the beginning of another. More than two years have passed since the inception of the vision for the establishment of a strong and durable structure, in the shape of the Foundation, with which to guarantee the delivery of this application. We now shift into assessing our commitments and mapping out the way forward towards a solid implementation of our plans for attaining excellence and inclusion through a creative, innovative and dynamic cultural programme. True to the nature of our open Foundation, we look forward to this further step in our development where we will be extending our collaboration with the members of the Evaluation Panel and the European Commission with the aim of achieving Valletta’s full potential.
