Remix22 – 14. European Youth Music Festival

Remix22 is the name of the fourteenth edition of the European Youth Music Festival. This festival is a Europe-wide event that has been held regularly on a large scale since 1985, either in a city or in a specific region of the European Union. In the past, the EYMF has already been associated several times with the European Capitals of Culture such as in 2016 in San Sebastian (Spain) or in 2018 in Sneek within the framework of Leeuwarden-Frysland (Netherlands). The festival will take place around Ascension 2022, more precisely from Wednesday 25th to Saturday 28th of May, and in the framework of Esch2022, European Capital of Culture. 2022 talented secondary and tertiary students in the fields of music, dance and theater from 23 European countries will perform in concerts over three days in various indoor and outdoor venues. At the heart of the European idea, youth music festivals not only show the vibrancy of Europe's diverse musical traditions but also the unity when young musicians from different countries come together in the common language of music. Over the years, the EMU and its member associations have gained significant experience in organising these festivals. More than that, the interest of EMU members in hosting one of these festivals has grown over the years, demonstrating the power of music and culture in uniting nations. EMU General Assembly and Conference Alongside the musical performances, the EMU General Assembly and a conference will be held, with the European theme of developing arts and cultural education as the focus of discussion.
