MOVE WEEK, 1 – 7 October 2012, is an annual European wide campaign week promoting sport and physical activity and their positive impact on European societies. MOVE WEEK engages individuals, organisations and cities from across Europe in a large-scale celebration of sport and physical activity, by promoting the myriad of successful sport and physical activity initiatives across Europe and initiating new ones.


During the campaign week each participating organisation or city creates one or more events that will mobilize citizens to gather and engage in sport or physical activity. These events include club activities that are presented to the wider public, including trial sessions and open door arrangements, but equally large events in public spaces, such as walkathons and running events, dance or gymnastic events, or any other popular activities that can rally people to participate in MOVE WEEK. Above all, the events are all designed to be good fun, promote sport and physical activity, gather the local community around a joint project and generate positive publicity for the organisation, community, or city. Is there an event in your city? Check the list here>>>.


MOVE WEEK is part of NOW WE MOVE,  a broad platform of initiatives from and its partners with the aim of getting 100 million more Europeans physically active by 2020.
