The European Universities Games 2024, to be jointly organized in the cities of Debrecen and Miskolc, next summer, were successfully presented through the month of May, taking part of different events connected to university and sports, held in the city of Miskolc. 

The promotional activities started with the first occasion which was the Carrier Festival at the University of Miskolc.

Students could meet company representatives in person, apply directly for various jobs, and receive valuable tips for building a successful career.

At this festival, both European Universities Games 2024 and European Universities Championships in Badminton and Water Polo, were promoted.

The European Universities Games 2024 were also promoted on the City Day of Miskolc, held every year on 11th of May, with a week long-series of events.

The team members promoted the indispensable voluntary activities involved in organizing the event and the Games itself, among young people and the general public. 

The city of Miskolc and the University of Miskolc, following the European Universities Basketball Championship in 2017, are once again prepared to welcome delegations from higher education institutions across our continent this summer for the Championships and next summer for the Games.
