The Power of Storytelling Timișoara 2026

The Power of Storytelling is an experience built on the idea that well-crafted stories can bridge divides, heal wounds, inspire action and create change. Since 2011 it has brought to Bucharest numerous storytellers in all fields – from media, to arts, to activism, to business – for inspirational talks meant to foster belonging, empathy, and revive hope in a better society. This year, as a pilot, we are taking The Power of Storytelling on the road to other cities in Romania – Iași and Timișoara. It’ll be a half-day experience built around talks from five speakers, plus workshops and community events. Our 2026 theme, HOPE, invites us to look honestly at the world – with all its pain, chaos, and uncertainty – and still decide to act. Not hope as comfort or waiting, but hope as a choice: the belief that even under difficult circumstances, our actions can help change the course for the better. 🗓️ October 25, 2026 🌍 Timișoara, Romania 📍 At Iulius Congress Hall, Timișoara PARTICIPATION INCLUDES: An afternoon filled with inspiration, creativity, and celebration, incredible speakers from around the world – journalists, activists, artists –, and a welcoming community. 💳 PRICE: Only regular tickets are available, priced at 300 RON.
