Pitch
In this show inspired by the codes of Digital Media and Adventure Games, eight young people, aged 16 to 30, are catapulted into a unique European adventure. Armed with a simple ticket and guided by a mysterious dynamic QR code, they set off to discover eight destinations across Europe.
Each episode follows their trip, immersed in the political and social realities of a country. Along their journey, they meet passionate activists, experts, and engaged citizens. Together, they discuss relevant societal issues such as LGBT rights, women's rights, education, new technologies, and the environment.
The young participants don’t know anyhing about where they go or who they meet, that’s part of this unique experience. They must also take on challenges and solve puzzles to progress in their adventure.
At the end the episodes, the young participants, enriched by this unforgettable human experience, submit a legislative proposal. Get your ticket ready; you’re embarking on a journey that will not only change the lives of our participants but also shift the perception of Europe for an entire generation.

Two young people set off on a mystery trip to Malta and Ireland
Nearly one million first-time voters will head to the polls on June 9. Among them, 268,000 young people aged 16 to 18 will also be voting for the first time. How can we reach them in a meaningful way? How can we spark their interest in European politics? That’s the challenge of "A Ticket to Europe."

Eight young Belgians were sent to eight different countries across Europe (Ireland, Sweden, Latvia, Poland, Spain, Croatia/Serbia, Greece, Malta).

Quentin, Lucas, Mariam, Amine, Robin, Fany, Anaëlle, and Nese wanted to show that young people are engaged with the world around them and eager to see certain things change.
After discovering their various adventures—filled with eye-opening experiences and reflections on the issues that affect them in their daily lives—it’s now time, in this 8th and final episode, to tackle the question of Europe’s enlargement. To help answer this question, we reconnect with Robin from Ciney, who in the previous episode explored Croatia, one of the gateways into Europe. In this 8th episode, Robin will take a trip to Serbia, a country that has been a candidate for EU membership for (too?) many years. Another candidate to rediscover in this final episode is Fany, who will visit a former coal mine in Poland. And to wrap up the show, all the other participants will come together to share and confront their ideas with Members of the European Parliament in a debate held at the European Parliament in Brussels.
