Better career opportunities, personal growth, stronger language skills, and lifelong friendships — that’s the power of Erasmus+. And this October, we’re celebrating it all during #ErasmusDays 2025, from October 13th to 18th!
These six days are all about celebrating international mobility, cultural exchange, and the impact of the Erasmus+ Programme. Whether you’re a student, teacher, trainee, professional, or simply curious about the opportunities Erasmus+ offers, #ErasmusDays is your chance to connect, share, and get inspired.
What Are #ErasmusDays?
Launched in 2017, #ErasmusDays has grown into a global celebration. What began with 650 activities across 11 countries now brings together over 10,000 events in 60 countries - and the 2025 edition promises to be even bigger.
Throughout the week, universities, organizations, and participants all over the world organize both online and in-person events - from language workshops and exhibitions to conferences, concerts, and creative challenges.
This year’s theme says it all: “Live Our Values, Inspire Our Future.”
It’s a reminder that the Erasmus+ spirit is rooted in the core values of the European Union - respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law, and human rights. These values unite us in a society that thrives on inclusion, tolerance, justice, solidarity, and non-discrimination.
