In pursuit of the competition for European Capital of Culture one believes, that the chosen candidate will be the best possible considering the review and selection is always subject to predetermined rules. However in the past, there were known cases, when the project - looking good on paper - failed in the difficult process. I started to wonder about two things: what if the winner city fails to sustain its victory in the end, and how do the unsuccessful candidate cities do? Is there added value in engaging in this challenging candidacy, when the outcome is uncertain? In my thesis I monitor both positive and negative impacts on unsuccessful candidates for the past years. I am presuming, that during all candidacies, new projects arise, cities and its inhabitants are mobilized and also, the surrounding communities usually perceive fundamental changes positively. The aim of this work is to demonstrate, that the ECOC project is meaningful for defeated candidates as well and also to create a set of best practices for cities, that may not succeed in the future.
