Europe Day is a key moment to celebrate the unity and peace that have shaped the continent since the "Schuman Declaration" of May 9, 1950. This historic declaration laid the foundation for European cooperation and the building of a stronger Union. In 2024, this event takes on special significance as the European elections approach (from June 6 to 9).

Open Doors and Events Across Europe
European institutions are opening their doors to mark this iconic anniversary. On Saturday, May 4, take part in the Open Day in Brussels to discover how the EU works. Many interactive activities and events will also be held in Luxembourg, Strasbourg, and across the 27 Member States of the Union. Through citizen debates, concerts, games, and workshops, these initiatives offer an opportunity to better understand the EU’s achievements and its impact on daily life.

Engage One Month Before the European Elections
Europe Day 2024 will also be an occasion to discuss the democratic future of the European Union. One month before the elections, institutions are inviting all citizens to stay informed and actively participate in these critical upcoming events. Celebrating the 74th anniversary of European democracy, the event will shed light on key political and social issues shaping future decisions.

Citizen Engagement for Unity and Peace
This day is not just a commemoration but also an invitation to act. Through its many achievements, the EU embodies a vision to build an inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous society. By participating in the activities, debates, and events organized for Europe Day 2024, you contribute to strengthening this vital cooperation.

On May 9, 2024, let us make Europe Day a unifying event and a starting point for collective mobilization towards the future of the European Union. Together, let us celebrate peace, unity, and the democratic values that bring us together.
