European Week of Sport
The joy of movement together
23 to 30 September 2025
The European Week of Sport is a broad-based campaign that takes place across Europe. Every September, numerous sporting and exercise-orientated activities are offered - in many places and for all age groups.
Numerous clubs, local authorities, schools and companies take part with their own events. The main aim is to motivate more people to get moving and discover the joy of sport. Launched by the European Commission, the Deutscher Turner-Bund e.V. organises the EWdS annually from 23 to 30 September 2025 under the motto #BeActive. The aim is to bring movement into everyday life - not just during this week, but throughout the year.
Children, young people, adults and older people can take part.
