European Day of Languages

Daten met Europa! | Dating with Europe! | Rendevuo kun Eŭropo!

Let’s celebrate the European Day of Languages!

Join us for an engaging Speak-Dating experience on September 26, 2024 (starting at 18.00).

EUNIC Netherlands will organize a speak-dating café in de passage of de Hallen Amsterdam. During the ‘speak-dating’ you can take part in short one-on-one language sessions with a native speaker, allowing you to discover the wealth of languages in Europe. From Crimean Tatar to Estonian, from Greek to Ukrainian, it’s going to be inspiring! You will hear fascinating stories about different cultures and countries and be able to taste various authentic snacks and sweets.

The annual European Day of Languages promotes the rich linguistic diversity of Europe under the slogan of “United in Diversity”. While this day aims to draw attention to the numerous languages spoken in Europe, it strives to emphasize the value and advantage of learning new languages. To celebrate this precious heterogeneity, EUNIC Netherlands (the network of European cultural institutes and embassies), the European Commission and De Hallen Amsterdam are collaborating to organize speak-dates with native speakers from every corner of the continent.

See you in De Hallen Amsterdam (Hannie Dankbaarpassage 47)! Entrance is free.
