The mayor of Denia, Vicent Grimalt, and the secretary general of the Denia Creative City of Gastronomy Foundation, Ricard Pérez Miñana, signed a collaboration agreement for the organisation and coordination of activities under the project Denia, City of Thought 2025.
Under the agreement, Denia Council has committed to contributing €60,000 towards the organisation and development of this cultural and academic initiative, which will take place between September and November 2025.
The programme will feature a wide range of opportunities for reflection and dialogue open to all citizens. In the coming days, the full schedule will be presented in detail. In the meantime, the opening events include the Terra y Mar Fair, set for Friday September 20, and the Fotoclub Denia photography exhibition, opening on Wednesday September 25 as part of the artistic section.
Mayor Vicent Grimalt stressed: “With this agreement Denia takes another step in its commitment to position itself not only as a gastronomic benchmark, but also as a point of reference in reflection, creativity and knowledge.”
For his part, Ricard Pérez Miñana highlighted that “Denia City of Thought opens a new path for the town to become a space of reference for dissemination, critical reflection and the exchange of ideas, reinforcing the innovative and creative character of our territory.”
The Denia Creative City of Gastronomy Foundation, formed by the council itself along with the Marina Alta Business Circle (CEDMA), the Marina Alta Hospitality and Tourism Association (AEHTMA) and Balearia, supports among its main projects Denia City of Thought 2025. This initiative combines educational, cultural and artistic activities designed to foster dialogue between the humanities, science and the arts, while promoting universal values such as knowledge, creativity, sustainability and human-centred enterprise.
