France’s 18-Year-Olds Given Culture Pass

The new culture pass for France’s 18-year-old earlier had a trial run in 14 areas of France and now is given national recognition.

Around 800,000 teenagers a year can look forward to downloading an app and get around 300 euros. As per the sources, it’s stated that the pass can be used for tickets to the cinema, museum, and theatre, or to buy books, art materials, dance courses, and instruments or an online subscription.

The cinemas and museums have reopened this week but the pass is not linked in any way to recovery from the Covid pandemic. Emmanuel Macron, who had made the culture pass one of the promises of his 2017 presidential campaign, had announced the move in a 30-second TikTok and Instagram video.
