EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY GAMES TO HAPPEN IN JULY 2024

In 2024, UM will host the third biggest sporting event on the European continent after the Olympics.

The European University Games were recently discussed with the European University Sports Confederation's Audit Committee in Budapest. There were discussions about the regional distribution of the organisational activities, progress reports of the different areas, the sports programme and budget of the 2024 European University Games and the work to be done in the next period, including events for the whole calendar year 2023.

In addition to the European University Sports Confederation's Audit Committee, the event was attended by the Hungarian University Sports Confederation and the project offices of Miskolc and Debrecen. The 2024 European University Games will be jointly organised by University of Miskolc, the City of Miskolc, the University of Debrecen and the City of Debrecen.

The February meeting was a follow-up to last November's visit, when the organisers focused on the venues, including a tour of the competition venues, accommodation and ancillary facilities. The main purpose of the recent visit was to check on the progress of the organisational process. The Organising Committee for the 2024 European University Games will next report to the European University Sports Confederation in May 2023.
