The #Ode2Joy Challenge is a social media initiative launched by Europa Nostra and its President, Maestro Plácido Domingo, to celebrate Europe’s cultural heritage throughout the year.

Participants, either individually or as a group, are invited to create a video of their own performance or interpretation of Beethoven & Schiller’s “Ode to Joy”, in connection to a heritage site that matters to them and posting it on social media.
