Road traffic will be restricted between 14.00 – 20.00, on the route mentioned above and on the arteries that access it.

In case there will be bad weather on Saturday, „The Color Run Night 2021” will be held on Sunday, September 19, with the same restrictions in store.

„IMapp Bucharest – Winners League”

The Center for Creation, Art and Tradition Bucharest will organize the event “IMapp Bucharest – Winners League” in Constitution Square on Saturday, Sept. 18 starting with 17.00 and on Libertății Boulevard, the patch between Calea 13 Septembrie and United Nations Blvd.

IMapp Bucharest – Winners League is one of the largest international 3D video mapping competitions in the world, organized each year by Bucharest City Hall through CREART, in Constitution Square, Bucharest, Romania.

Every year, in September, iMapp Bucharest brings to Bucharest the best multimedia artists in the world, who present their creations on the Parliament Palace’ façade of 23,000 sqm (the second largest administrative building in the world). The participants’ works are analyzed by a specialized jury, composed of distinguished experts and important representatives of the international visual culture, in the field of visual arts, communication, media or film.

In 2020, iMapp Bucharest launched the international solidarity campaign “One World. One Heart. ” and was declared the winner of the “AV IN ACTION” category at the AV AWARDS Awards in London – the famous international competition that recognizes and rewards excellence in the entire audiovisual industry, organized by AV Magazine from UK (magazine that dominates the audiovisual publishing sector for over 40 years).

Video mapping uses a complex 3D image, that brings to life the surface of the building by forms and colors, using each architectonic element in order to personalize and reshape the gigantic area of the construction. Thus, the “outline” of the building becomes the main protagonist of a dynamic show of sound, color, light, a true optical illusion. Referring to the mapping part of the event, we can say that the huge surface of 23.000 sqm of the façade of the Parliament Palace has never been used in such a complex project of video-mapping. From a technical point of view, iMapp Bucharest is an impressive display of expertise, unique in Romania.
