The Corredor Cultural aims to facilitate and promote access for higher education students to participating cultural venues, be they monuments, museums, cultural centers, concert halls or exhibition halls.

The Corredor Cultural is organized through agreements between Portuguese universities and the municipalities and cultural institutions in their geographical areas. It is an ever-expanding project, which began in Porto, but is progressively incorporating other national regions as the different universities establish local partnership agreements.

Depending on the wishes of the partner institution, these agreements can establish total free access or a reduction in the normal admission price. Some cultural institutions, which already have free access or a merely symbolic fee, may still be part of the Cultural Corridor, although this presence will then only be of informational interest to the student, and will form part of the list of offers that can be consulted on this website.

It is important to note that although the organization of the Corredor Cultural is the responsibility of the universities represented on the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities (CRUP), the beneficiaries are all higher education students from public and private national institutions, including mobility students and also students from countries covered by the Erasmus+ agreements.
