Concéntrico

New Season – Coming Soon

2025 — 2026

Concéntrico is an urban innovation laboratory that invites reflection on the city through architecture and design. Since 2015, it has carried out more than 180 interventions in Logroño, proposing new collective uses of space and fostering a shared urban experience.

The 2025/2026 season expands this experimental spirit with three international open calls that bring into action the ideas explored in the book Concéntrico: Urban Innovation Laboratory (Park Books, 2025). Through them, the project deepens three key research strands —the ephemeral, the ecological, and the symbolic— to imagine new ways of inhabiting the city.

The festival in Logroño, which will celebrate its twelfth edition from 18 to 23 June 2026, will once again be the meeting point where the initiatives and collaborations of the season converge, consolidating Concéntrico as an international platform for urban experimentation.

Open Calls

Deadline: January 13

Concéntrico announces three international open calls —Ephemeral Agents, Urban Ecologies and Identity and Fiction— to take part in the new season of Concéntrico. Within this programme, the festival in Logroño will take place from 18 to 23 June 2026.
