Call : Design TAC! Pavillion - Valencia&San Sebastian

TAC!, Urban Architecture Festival, will turn different Spanish cities into a space for innovation and experimentation. This will be carried out through the construction of a temporary pavilion in each city chosen through an open competition. València and Donostia-San Sebastián, the host cities of TAC!

in 2023, will unite contemporary architecture, young creative practices, and urban and social reflection through meetings and activities around the pavilion that will establish a dialogue with the public. Both proposals will launch a reflection on the role of architecture in the challenges facing the urban environment in the current context of climate emergency.

The second edition of the festival will be held on the following dates: VALÈNCIA → 14 SEP. / 16 OCT. 2023 DONOSTIA — SAN SEBASTIÁN → 10 OCT. / 13 NOV. 2023
