Over 374,000 Young People Apply for Spain's 2026 Youth Culture Voucher, Two-Thirds of Those Turning 18
Spain's Ministry of Culture announced on November 5 that more than 374,000 young people applied for the 2026 Youth Culture Voucher (Bono Cultural Joven), equivalent to 66.6% of the estimated population turning 18 in 2026.
The voucher is a culture subsidy the Spanish government grants to young people when they turn 18, usable for books, performances, cinema tickets and other cultural products and services, with the aim of widening young people's access to culture and supporting the cultural sector.
The ministry said the application figure shows the scheme's continued take-up among young people. Approved applicants will receive and spend the subsidy under the programme rules.
