How does culture contribute to the broad prosperity of The Hague?

15th April 2025

What does culture mean for The Hague? Much more than you think.
Culture is not only a source of inspiration and creativity but also a powerful driver of innovation, economic growth, urban development, and social cohesion. In this way, culture directly contributes to the broad prosperity of our city and its residents.

Together we build a strong cultural and economic future
To strengthen this valuable role of culture, various partners in The Hague are joining forces. The Hague Cultural Consultation, the directors’ meeting of The Hague Museums, and several private parties are working together to firmly embed culture into the economic and social fabric of the city. Because those who invest in culture, invest in the future of The Hague.

The Hague Cultural Summit – a new step forward
At the very first The Hague Cultural Summit, one key question takes center stage: How can we further strengthen The Hague’s approach to culture?
An inspiring afternoon filled with strategic insights, striking real-world examples, and meaningful encounters between cultural professionals, policymakers, and entrepreneurs. This is where the foundation is laid for long-term collaboration and new initiatives that will help The Hague thrive — both culturally and economically.

Will you be there?
The Economic Board The Hague warmly invites you to join us. For everyone who believes in the power of culture as a cornerstone of a future-proof city.
