According to tradition, the event began with the transfer of the key from the city to the presidents of students’ councils of the universities, an action which symbolizes the power of young people in the city.

The Mayor of Lublin, Krzysztof Żuk, emphasized thus: „This year, Lublin plays the role of the European Youth Capital. I appreciate that the cooperation of all the Students’ Councils has led to inter-university integration.” The presidents of Students’ Councils, taking over the city, declared that during Lublinalia 2023 they would take care not only of security, but also of entertainment and dynamism of events.

A few thousand people took part in the Student Procession which went through the streets such as Krakowskie Przedmieście, Racławickie, Sowiński, Głęboka and Nadbystrzycka. They marched to the green areas of the Lublin University of Technology where the first event inaugurating the Student Culture Days in Lublin took place - Juwenalia

KULturalia, which will end the students’ May events, will, traditionally, take place on the last weekend of May in the courtyard of KUL at Al. Racławickich 14.

Lublinalia 2023 is a party event organized by students’ councils of four Lublin universities: UMCS, Medical University, University of Natural Sciences and Lublin University of Technology.
