Europe Day - Schengen March
In 2019, different sections of Volt met for a cross-border march at the triangle border between France, Germany and Luxembourg. 5 years later, we are recreating this successful event to show the pan-European nature of our political movement.
This event will take place on 9 May, when the European Union celebrates Europe Day to commemorate the Schuman declaration, now considered as the founding act of the EU.
