Europe Day celebrates peace and unity in Europe.

9 May marks the anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, a proposal which led to the European Coal and Steel Community, which was a precursor for the EU.

This year’s Europe Day festival features the following priorities: a green and competitive Europe; a competent and fair Europe; and a safe and strong Europe, united with Ukraine and the world.

It will include concerts, food trucks, a kids corner and more. More information .
