Neighbours' Day 2026 will be celebrated in Luxembourg City over the weekend of 22 to 24 May. The City of Luxembourg will provide residents interested in organising their own neighbourhood parties with benches, tables, bins and promotional materials. In addition, in so far as possible, the City may close off certain streets upon request in order to create spaces for these friendly neighbourhood gatherings.

Promotional materials will also be available to residents who wish to organise their Neighbours' Day event at another time, up to and including the weekend of 10 to 12 July 2026. 

Residents who wish to organise a Neighbours' Day event in a public park or schoolyard will need to apply for prior authorisation with the relevant City department(s).
