"The government decided that the state is ready to contribute up to
10 mln euros with the caveat that at least half of the budget of the capital of
culture has to be spent on content activities," Minister of Culture Indrek
Saar said.
"This condition was set so that the cities did not spend too much
money to make some major investment, but would contribute to cultural events
instead," Saar said.
Estonian cities Tartu and Parnu, Narva and Kuressaare have announced
their intention to run for the status of European Capital of Culture. The first
decisions concerning the selection of the capital of culture will be made in
October, Saar said.
