Informative sessions, immersive experiences and fun activities for school groups and the entire family - it's all happening 22 - 23 November at EUSPA Open Days!

The days may be getting shorter and colder, but that's no excuse to stay at home - especially when you can jump on one of Prague's Galileo-enabled trams and head over to EUSPA Headquarters for our annual Open Days!

This free event is a unique opportunity to get an inside look at EUSPA, learn about its mission and discover the many benefits of EU Space.

This year's edition, which is taking place 22 - 23 November, will feature a range of captivating activities, including interactive Augmented Reality experiences, cryptography games and a treasure hunt. There will also be numerous informative sessions held throughout the day where EUSPA's team of experts will demonstrate the many ways EU Space impacts our daily lives.

For the kids and the kids at heart, the agenda also includes numerous opportunities to play games, win prizes and snap some fun, space-themed photos for your social media feeds. Kids are sure to enjoy our interactive model building station, where they can build a model of an actual Galileo, EGNOS or Copernicus satellite to take home. Families will also have fun competing in our space scavenger hunt, where they can navigate EUSPA Headquarters while completing different missions and collecting stamps along the way.

With EUSPA celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, we're excited to launching our new Time Tunnel during Open Days 2024. This fascinating 3D adventure lets you immerse yourself in the Agency's history and get an up-close-and-personal look at the evolution of EU Space.

School groups are invited to experience EUSPA Open Days on Friday, 22 November (9:00 - 16:00) before the event opens to the public. You can reserve a slot for your class here - be quick, as capacities are limited!

EUSPA Headquarters is located at Janovského 438/2, 170 00 Praha 7-Holešovice. Our doors will be open from 16:00 - 18:00 on Friday, 22 November and from 9:00 - 18:00 on Saturday, 23 November.

More details about the event can be found here. We are looking forward to seeing you soon!
