Marking the 20th anniversary of the 2004 EU enlargement

Ceremony of unfurling the EU flag and raising the 10 flags of the EU countries that joined the Union 20 years ago

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the 2004 EU enlargement, the European Commission will unfurl a large EU flag and raise the 10 flags of the EU countries that joined the EU 20 years ago. 

Our social media and audiovisual teams, together with our Representation in Belgium, will make sure that this will remain a moment to remember forever, captured in photos and footage.

Join us on 1 May 2024, at 10:30, in the Parc du Cinquantenaire, close to the main entrance.

For 20 years together!

*Photographs and videos will be taking place for illustration, information and promotion purposes related to the activities of the European institutions and the European Union. Participants to this event may later appear, on photo or video, in publicly distributed communication material (social media, video clips, image libraries, EU related websites) related to this event.
