This year Europe Day is celebrated on 9 May, in a context that proves, more than ever, the importance of solidarity, joint action and a Union that protects its citizens. The 70 years of the declaration that gave rise to the European Union are celebrated with a series of online events such as concerts, visits to museums, films and various conversations and debates. This year, the European Commission pays special tribute to all the people who work on the front lines daily to combat the pandemic.
At the invitation of the EU Representation in Portugal, MNAC joins the celebrations with the film that we leave you here and which we hope will be to your liking.
