European Week of Sport 2026 initiatives

Overview

The 2026 European Week of Sport, organized under the ‘BEACTIVE’ motto, is scheduled to take place from September 23 to 30. The initiative aims to promote physical activity and active lifestyles through various community-based programs across Europe.

In Arganil, Portugal, the event enters its seventh consecutive year with a program featuring 29 activities and 32 partners, representing a significant increase in scale compared to the previous year. The local programming is designed to be inclusive, targeting seniors, students, and individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Broader regional participation includes activities in Ireland, where Swim Ireland is hosting open water swimming, diving camps, and sessions tailored for autism and wheelchair users. In Portugal, the University of Porto is contributing through free fitness classes and a solidarity walk organized in collaboration with the REVIRES volunteer network.
