The European elections in 2024 will take place from Thursday to Sunday, 6 – 9 June 2024. If you are an EU citizen, you have the right to vote in these elections, together with around 400 million Europeans. And your vote matters. You are part of Europe and what it represents, and your vote will help shape and nurture our common future.
In the European Union, democracy may seem obvious to us today. But this has not always been the case. Not so long ago, millions of Europeans lived through times when they could not vote or even speak up freely.
Democracy is a precious gift passed on to us from previous generations. Now it is up to us to maintain it, to make it stronger and pass it on to the generations to come. The most effective way to do so is by voting – because the more people vote, the stronger democracy becomes.
On 6-9 June 2024: Use your vote or others will decide for you.
