24-26.10.2025 With Europe Direct, the European Union at the VeniceMarathon
Europe Direct is participating in the
Venicemarathon with the
ExpoSport initiative, which will be held on the two days preceding the Venicemarathon:
Friday 24 and Saturday 25 October. This is an event entirely dedicated to those who love and live sport. Here, you can not only learn about the leading companies and organisations in this sector, but also test the latest products on the market and meet national and international figures from the world of running. A real sports fair
at Parco San Giuliano in Mestre, Venice Mestre, near the Porta Blu entrance (opening hours: Friday 24 October 9:00 am - 8:00 pm and Saturday 25 October 9:00 am - 8:00 pm).
Europe Direct Venice Veneto of the Municipality of Venice will be present at
stand E10 located in the outdoor area together with the
Civil Protection of the
Metropolitan City of Venice.

The aim of the initiative is to promote the values that the European Union attributes to
sport as a tool for social integration and intercultural dialogue, as an opportunity to spread notions of peace, tolerance and mutual understanding. Education and sport are two key areas for fostering the harmonious development of young people's personalities, building models of aggregation and identification, and providing emotional and affective stimuli combined with symbols of belonging. The strong and proactive message that we want to convey to young people is that sport should be perceived as an “added and transversal skill” to enhance and harmonise inherent values such as fair play, self-improvement, team spirit and tolerance, in order to live everyday life better.
Through sport, the EU aims to promote
educational and social values and spread them among all citizens, as called for in the
White Paper on Sport, adopted in 2007 by the European Commission with the aim of providing strategic guidance on the role of sport in Europe, encouraging debate and raising public awareness of the needs and characteristics of the sector.
