It’s May and it’s time for Europe Day – the time when the European Union celebrates its foundation on the values of respect for democracy, the rule of law, and human rights. 

Thanks to the celebration promo campaign launched by EurID – the .EU registry, we can now all celebrate Europe Day with an exclusive .EU promotion. 

For a limited time, you can register .EU for a period of 10 years with an 80% OFF discount offer.

Learn more about that and about how you can offer that promotion to your own customers.  

What is Europe Day about?

Europe Day is celebrated at the beginning of May and it commemorates two important days for Europe:

• • 5th May: the day on which the Council of Europe was found in 1949; 
• • 9th May: the day when the Schuman Declaration was signed in 1950; The declaration proposed the merging of French and West German coal and steel industries, leading to the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community, the first European Community, established in 1952.

Both days recognize the peace and prosperity within Europe that both the Council of Europe and the European Union have achieved since their formation. 

Europe Day was introduced along with the flag of Europe on the 29th of September 1985 in Milan.

It was not until 2008, however, that the European Parliament recognized it formally.  

With the expansion of the European Union over the years, the observance of Europe Day by national and regional authorities increased significantly. 

Germany, for instance, has gone beyond celebrating just the day by extending the celebration to an entire “Europe Week”. 

So has EUrid, the registry behind the European Union’s official TLD – .EU. 

The registry celebrates the European Day with an exclusive promotion. 

What is the new Europe Day promotion about?
