(17 October 2018) – Following the success of the first round of DiscoverEU, the European Commission will launch in November a second competition for free tickets available for 18-year-olds to discover Europe.
All 18-year-olds in the EU will then have until 11 December 2018 to apply for a free ticket, giving them the opportunity to travel around Europe between 15 April and 31 October 2019.
The first round of DiscoverEU brought together thousands of young people building a true community across Europe.
Participants, who never met before, linked up on social media formed groups to travel from city to city or stayed at each other’s places.
