Join us on May 9 for an unforgettable day in the heart of Ajka, at Boating Lake! This day is not just about relaxation—it’s about movement, cooperation, and the European Union’s shared values, the power of community, and the importance of a healthy, active lifestyle.

Join us! - Come on foot, by bike, or on a scooter—with your dog or a stroller. Let’s count our steps together and show what it’s like when the heart of Ajka beats to the same rhythm. (We’re waiting for screenshots of your step count in the comments on the FB event!)

Let’s celebrate Europe Day together! - For us, the university is not just a borderless space, but a place of collaboration, diversity, and a shared future. On May 9, we’ll put this unity into motion—literally.

What will you be moving for? - Culture? Sports? Food? A picnic? You’ll find it all here—just come and experience it with us. A day where movement brings us together, community lifts us up, and we celebrate Europe’s values together.

Location: Boating Lake, Ajka. Date: May 9.

You belong there! Be part of something big—let’s take action together for Ajka and for Europe.

We encourage you to join the program with your family, friends, and colleagues. Let’s explore the area around Boating Lake and try out every opportunity!
