Reise durch deine Stadt.
Los geht’s am Samstag, den 26. Mai, zu Mittag im MuseumsQuartier. Vor Ort wirst du in eine Gruppe eingeteilt und machst dich gemeinsam mit eurem Guide auf den Weg. Auf eurer Route besucht ihr drei Länder, die alle in Gehdistanz erreichbar sind.
Erlebe Länder hautnah.
Auf jeder Route erlebt ihr drei der insgesamt 15 europäischen Länder, die 2018 zur Auswahl stehen. Ein paar Highlights aus dem heurigen Programm: in der Skispringer-Nation Polen kann man die richtige Haltung für den perfekten Skisprung üben, in der Schweiz erfährst du die Do’s and Dont’s für die Zubereitung von Käsefondue, in Dänemark gibt es ein “Lego Serious Play” und in Bulgarien gilt es eine Postkarte zu schreiben – in neu gelernten kyrillischen Schriftzeichen.
Europa darf man feiern.
Zum Abschluss geht’s in den Volksgarten Club, wo alle knapp tausend TeilnehmerInnen wieder zusammen kommen. Dort ist Zeit, sich darüber auszutauschen, was man auf seiner persönlichen Route erlebt hat – und ihr erlebt vor Ort, wie europäisch wir eigentlich alle sind. Danach kann man den Tag gemeinsam ausklingen lassen. Voraussichtliches Ende: ca. 20.30 Uhr.
