DiscoverEU returns!

Were you born between 1 July 2001 and the 31 December 2003? Do you have the nationality of a Member State of the EU? 60.000 travel passes are available for young people to travel around Europe by train under the DiscoverEU programme.

DiscoverEU is an initiative of the European Union that gives you the opportunity to discover Europe through learning experiences. Travelling predominantly by rail (there are exceptions to allow those living on islands or in remote areas), you will discover Europe’s stunning landscapes and its variety of cities and towns. You can apply during the two application rounds which take place each year. Successful applicants are awarded with a travel pass to travel up to 30 days. DiscoverEU is an initiative that is part of the EU Youth Strategy.

Applications must be submitted through the European Youth Portal during the application period running from Tuesday 12 October 2021 at 12:00 CEST until Tuesday 26 October 2021 at 12:00 CEST.
