Morphology

vibrant + cultural + scene

The phrase's meaning ('a lively/dynamic environment of arts and activities') is directly derived from its constituents: 'vibrant' (energetic), 'cultural' (relating to arts/society), and 'scene' (a sphere of activity). This compositional reading follows ordinary adjective + noun patterns and is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows the individual words will readily infer the MWE meaning.

Etymology

The phrase vibrant cultural scene joins vibrant (bright and full of life) and scene (a place where things happen). Picture a colourful street or stage full of music, art and busy people, and you'll see why it means 'a lively and active place for art and culture'.
