International Youth Exchange in Hollókő, 25 August-4 September 2026
Organized by Egyesek Youth Association, a special adventure is waiting for young people, This means there will be many exciting activities and challenges to face where you can create, explore and understand, working in small and big groups with young people from other countries. “Glee It Up! 5” is all about performing arts, self-expression, and the power of sharing joy as a community.
Aim of the program
The project will bring together 30 young people from 6 different European countries to explore how music, dance, theatre, and storytelling can add more joy, creativity, and community spirit to everyday life.
Participants will try different forms of expression—singing, music, dance, drama, and storytelling—and create different themed projects. They will work in small and large groups, where everyone can find their role, share ideas, and actively contribute.
The main message of the program is that art is not only entertainment, but also a powerful tool to build community, express ourselves, and bring joy to others.
Who can participate?
The program is open to young people aged 16–25 who are interested in music, dance, theatre, or other performing arts and would like to spend ten days in an international group with peers from across Europe. Participants should be open to exploring new cultures, making friends, learning about themselves, and taking part in a fun and meaningful experience. No previous experience is required, but any artistic background (music, dance, acting, or other creative skills) is a great plus and can enrich the group work.
