Dâmbovița Delivery – a Neighborhood Project under “Open Streets”, Initiated by ARCUB

 As part of the partner projects series held in Bucharest neighborhoods through “Open Streets – Bucharest, Urban Promenade” 2025, initiated by ARCUB, Dâmbovița Delivery brings a weekend filled with artistic and civic interventions to the Timpuri Noi Pier area (Splaiul Unirii 96–114). Organized by Nod Makerspace, the event features installations and live performances, eco-social workshops, interactive debates, dance, and participatory design—encouraging community reconnection with public space.

On Sunday, June 8, Calea Victoriei becomes a cultural hotspot with scenographic installations, open-air exhibitions, painting demonstrations, and musical performances. Visitors can enjoy an installation by Odeon Theatre, an interactive workshop by the National Museum of Romanian Literature, visual art demos by the Association of Plastic Artists, and a display of vintage Italian cars (Ruote Classiche Italiane) marking Italy’s National Day.
The day ends with two open-air concerts: Alexandra Stan at CEC Palace and Damian Drăghici on a mobile route between the Military Circle and Amzei Square. Skateboarding shows will also animate the area near Kretzulescu Park.
