This year its official patrons are the Council of Europe, UNESCO and the International Council of Museums (ICOM). The Night of Museums is the nocturnal twin of the International Day of Museums organized on the 18th of May.

The National Network of Romanian Museums (RNMR) is the official partner of the international event, coordinates and promotes the event in Romania and also supports it by consistently promoting activities organized by all the participating Romanian museums, through the national media and through the site www.noapteamuzeelor.ro. Starting in 2011, RNMR is coordinating the Bucharest museum circuit.

The project “Night of Museums in four acts: Bucharest, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu” coordinated by the National Network of Romanian Museums enriches the event in 2013 with four routes among museums in Bucharest, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu.
