This focus of this year's event will be on youth engagement, which ties in with 2022 being declared the European Year of Youth.
The day, which is being organised together with the Liaison and Action Committee for Foreigners (Comité de Liaison des Associations d'Etrangers - CLAE), emphasises sports and intercultural exchange and reflects the VdL's desire to promote the integration of its many resident nationalities through sport and culture.
On the programme are football and beach volleyball tournaments, cycling activities, a graffiti workshop and an intercultural party for the whole family.
