EFFE is a gateway to Europe for Cultural Festivals and aims to broaden knowledge of what is happening in the festival world, while promoting excellence and innovation. The seal now received by the Marionetas na Cidade festival is given when festivals have the artistic commitment to involve their local communities and preserve the European and world perspective.
From this moment on, Marionetas na Cidade, by the company SA Marionetas, is included in a complete festival guide that will be widely publicized, containing news and practical information about each event, as a recognition label for good work. EFFE will thus provide greater visibility and audience, as well as new networking possibilities.
