From 7 to 17 July 2026, Pistoia hosts the European Gym for Life Challenge
and the EUROGYM Festival — eleven days of European gymnastics that bring
thousands of athletes, coaches and supporters from across the continent
to Tuscany.
The EGFL Challenge (7–11 July) is the continental showcase for gym-for-
life groups: choreography, acrobatics, dance and fitness, performed by
teams of every age. The EUROGYM Festival (12–17 July) is the youth side
of the celebration — workshops, mass performances, exhibitions and
ceremonies for gymnasts roughly 12 to 18 years old.
For ten days the city becomes a stage. Sports halls, schools, parks and
squares fill with performances and parades. Pistoia, a Tuscan city
between Florence and Lucca, opens its venues, its kitchens and its
classrooms to delegations from across Europe.
This is the official companion app — built and maintained by the local
organizing committee so that everyone on the ground, from delegation
heads to first-time spectators, can find what's happening, where, and
when.
Inside:
• Day-by-day event schedule.
• Per-group programmes.
• Venue list with maps.
• Catering and lodging assignments.
• Interactive map of Pistoia covering every venue, catering area and
school.
Organized by COL Pistoia for EUROGYM 2026, under the patronage of UEG
(European Gymnastics).
