Europe Day 2022

French version here. 

Our annual celebration of Europe Day through music is making a big comeback this May!

For this 8th edition, our members Ancienne Belgique and L’Aéronef are joining forces to put together a truly European cross-border celebration organised across two days between Brussels and Lille.

The event will bring together representatives from Liveurope’s 21 venues, local and international music professionals, artists, decision-makers, journalists and general audiences from all over the continent for music discoveries, networking moments and discussions on hot topics for the sector.

And it wouldn’t be our Europe Day festivity without great gigs with some of the continent’s hottest acts right now! Our host venues have planned not one but two  special concert evenings that will take you on a colourful trip through Europe’s diverse and eclectic music scenes.

In these troubled times Europe is facing, we think it’s more important than ever to take this opportunity to gather and celebrate our shared values through music and culture. Especially after nearly 2 years of shutdown of the live music sector, this is the moment to come together and put European cultural cooperation on the centre stage.

Check out the full programme below and make sure you join us for this one-of-a-kind event!

This initiative is co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union and has the official endorsement of the French Presidency of the Council of the European Union and the Cultural Creators Friendship Group, a cross-partisan coalition of currently 26 Members of the European Parliament from 6 different political groups and 14 different countries.
