The 60th Edition of the Sousse International Festival

This stamp celebrates the 60th edition of the Sousse International Festival, one of the most emblematic cultural events in the Tunisian Sahel region. The illustration features a marine mythological figure, Neptune holding his trident and guiding a chariot of seahorses, a direct reminder of the famous Roman mosaics kept at the city's archaeological museum. This iconographic choice underlines the historical anchoring of Sousse, the ancient Hadrumetus, while promoting its contemporary cultural dynamism through this festival which enlivens the nights of the seaside city every summer.
