On Saturday, May 9, 2009, the European Commission Delegation and the Embassies of the EU Member States in Washington, DC, invite you to join us for the third annual European Union Open House Day!

From 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, take a rare behind-the-scenes look at the European Embassies, many of which are among Washington’s historic and architectural treasures. Each Embassy offers a unique program featuring the country’s cuisine, its music and special events. In 2008, more than 50,000 visitors experienced the diversity and richness of European culture during the EU Open House.

Taking place on Europe Day, the 2009 EU Open House kicks off Europe Week, a celebration of European culture in the US capital and around the country. For more information on Europe Week, please see our brochure and visit our calendar of events organized and hosted by EU Member State Embassies, the European Commission Delegation in Washington and other organizations affiliated with the EU in the United States.

For the Open House: no registration is necessary, but please bring identification. All Embassies will conduct security checks. Please avoid bringing large bags and backpacks. Photography is prohibited at some locations.

See you in Europe on May 9!
