Few days before the European Youth Event organised by the European Parliament and the European Youth Forum, the YO!Village is shaping up.

In its different tents, the YO!Village will be hosting political debates, workshops, artistic performances such as dance, circus, theatre, street art and graffiti, sports installations and live music, making the YO!Village a vibrant space full of energy and exchanges between young people wanting a better Europe.

YO!Fest-goers will be invited to complete their “YO!Passport”, which will be a notebook where they can note down the different activities that they went to during the three days of the YO!Fest in the different stands of the YO!Village run by youth organisations, institutional and civil society partners.

Different debates, talks and activities will be broadcast on YO!TV. There will be several screens all over the YO!Village. YO!TV will also be a space for promoting the different events and activities happening all across the YO!Village, but will also an opportunity for young people attending to be interviewed about their experiences so far at YO!Fest.

At the Cine ONU young people from all across Europe will be able to attend screenings of and discuss them together afterwards.

To close the weekend of debates, fruitful discussions and fun, a “Brunch citoyen” will be organised on Sunday from 11am, everyone is welcome to pop by and enjoy some food with the YO!Fest-goers. During the whole time of the event, the YO!Village will be accessible to everyone, without pre-booking or registration.
