On Friday, August 30, starting at 18:00, the streets of Tallinn will come alive with the vibrant "Kultuuriöö (Culture Night)" festival, themed "Ääretud silmapiirid (Boundless Horizons)" this year. Now in its eighth year, the festival highlights cultural forms from the periphery and brings to the stage young and lesser-known cultural creators. The event will feature music, art, film, performances, exhibitions, movement, discussions, and various workshops.

During this year’s first round of non-profit music projects, 54 projects were submitted and the chosen projects received support from the city in the sum of 152,650 euros. In total, the expert commission decided to support 27 events.

On Sunday, 5 February, the Estonian Choral Association announced the winners of the annual awards for choral and wind music at the Estonia Concert Hall. The Supporter of the Year 2022 award was presented to the City of Tallinn as last year, as the city provided substantial support for organizing the 1st Tallinn Youth Choirs Festival, supporting the activities of the Finnish Choral Association and other choir concert projects.

For the third time, Tallinn is organizing the Tallinn Talent music competition, which aims to highlight and support musically talented students. The twenty-two best participants will be awarded the title of the city's most talented young musician and a one-off scholarship. Registration for the competition closes on 13 February.
