Erasmus Days: October 13–18
Broader career opportunities, personal development, enhanced language proficiency, and lifelong international friendships — these are just some of the many gifts Erasmus+ offers. That’s why we’re marking Erasmus Days again this year, from October 13 to 18!
The OLS platform is here to help you sharpen your language skills and make the most of your mobility journey. We regularly host Open Days, where learners can explore the OLS features and meet the community managers. You can catch the latest session recap on the OLS #ErasmusDays page to see what it’s all about!
What are #erasmusdays?
#ErasmusDays is a six-day international celebration dedicated to the Erasmus+ programme. During this time, people from around the world come together to organize or participate in events that highlight the projects and opportunities created through Erasmus+.
From students and educators to trainers, professionals, and citizens, everyone can take part in showcasing the many benefits of Erasmus+. The 2025 edition — the ninth one — will take place from October 13 to 18.
#Erasmusdays Make Europe Shine
Between October 13 and 18, 2025, all Erasmus+ participants are invited to host events — online or in person — to share their experiences and ideas. Activities may include:
Seminars to exchange best practices,
Language workshops to strengthen communication skills,
Photo exhibitions capturing mobility adventures,
Conferences promoting intercultural exchange, or
Creative social media challenges encouraging participation.
This year’s theme emphasizes the values of the European Union, under the slogan:
#ErasmusDays 2025: Live Our Values, Inspire Our Future.
These six EU values — human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, rule of law, and human rights — represent a shared ideal that promotes inclusion, tolerance, justice, solidarity, and non-discrimination.
So don’t miss it! Whether you want to study or train abroad, connect with Erasmus+ alumni, or share your own European journey, #ErasmusDays offers a perfect opportunity to celebrate diversity and collaboration across borders.
"Live Our Values, Inspire Our Future"
Join the festive atmosphere of #ErasmusDays and get inspired!
In 2024, over 10,000 events were held across 60 countries, showcasing the global reach of Erasmus+.
Whether you’re currently benefiting from the programme, working in education or training, or part of its growing alumni network, #ErasmusDays invites you to share your story and inspire others.
