The EYE (European Youth Event) brings together at the European Parliament in Strasbourg and online thousands of young people from all over the European Union and the world, to share and shape their ideas on Europe’s future.

It is a unique opportunity for 16 to 30 year olds to interact, inspire each other and exchange their views with experts, activists, influencers and decision-makers, right in the heart of European democracy. In light of the European and global context and ahead of the European elections 2024, part of the programme will focus on the role of democracy and youth engagement.

EYE2023 (the fifth edition) offers a variety of in-person and hybrid activities in Strasbourg, co-created with partners, youth organisations, participants themselves and other institutions and international organisations.
