Each year we invite you to join us at the European Day of Languages. You will have fun, win prizes and learn your favourite words in many languages. 

Bring your kids, family and friends

Let them see the world of opportunities which language learning opens. You can take part in interactive language games with puzzels and drawings, crossword puzzles, blitz quizzes, open lessons and speakdating − language sessions in 10 languages.

There will be stands in 23 languages, where you will learn interesting facts about European languages and upcoming cultural events. You will have the opportunity to speak to representatives from various cultural centres on a variety of topics − music, nature, culture, cultrual heritage and the best opportunities for language learning.
