You only turn 18 once, which is why the city council invited all Winterthur residents born in 2001 to celebrate their newfound majority and the transition into a new phase of life as part of the Short Film Festival.

On September 19, 2019, the first Municipalities Day of the Winterthur region, which was initiated by the Winterthur City Council, took place at Technorama. The aim is to establish a platform where representatives of the municipalities in the Winterthur region can meet and exchange ideas. During the initial implementation, the focus was on the event format itself: Why do people want to exchange ideas? What trends does science recognize with regard to inter-municipal forms of cooperation? What are the expectations? House of Winterthur took part in the event and was on site with an information stand including a sculpture.
