The University Square will be renovated for this year’s Campus Festival. At the thematic stands, the 27 organizational units of the University of Debrecen, organized around a theme, present the colorful, light-hearted or even humorous side of science to the young people, who will also be guests for a drink. The University Preparatory Program for Secondary School Students, KEEP, will be introduced at this year’s festival, with which the institution addresses those who are about to continue their education.
The University Square welcomes young people from Wednesday to Sunday, every day from 4:30 pm, at the Campus Festival, at last year’s location, opposite the Nagyerde Cultural Park. In addition to the spectacular, thematic presentations, the campus festival’s novelty this year is that young people will receive stamps for completing playful tasks at the stands, and after collecting three, they can be guests of the Chill Zone on the University square, where they can enjoy one of the trendy drinks of the summer, the Mimóza cocktail and they will also offer a spritz made of dry white wine, as well as elderberry, mint and lavender syrup for the correctly completed lesson book.
