Join us for the second edition of the AUC Tahrir CultureFest from April 10 to 12, 2025 on the University’s iconic Tahrir Square campus. This year’s festival celebrates Cairo as a global city — a vibrant mix of cultures that bridges Africa, the Mediterranean and the Arab world. A cultural hub of the global South, Cairo connects heritage, people and history in a dynamic contemporary setting. The festival brings together AUC’s community with our friends and neighbors and features book talks, discussions, performances, exhibitions, a bazaar, a children’s corner and a food fair that captures the city’s multicultural flavor.
AUC Tahrir Square is a prime downtown destination for conferences, lectures, seminars, and public events. Its exhibition space has become a platform for established artists to showcase their work, while also serving as a hub for local and international theater and contemporary dance performances. Inside the Historic Palace, the building houses Oriental Hall and Ewart Memorial Hall, with Ewart boasting a long history of hosting distinguished guests from around the world. Today, Ewart and Oriental halls continue to serve as the prime downtown destination for a range of conferences, lectures, seminars, and public events held by the University.
