European elections – EU countries confirm election date in June 2024

Date:

The next European elections will take place from 6 to 9 June 2024. The EU countries also formally confirmed the election date on Monday. Now Member States will determine the date in this period according to their respective constitutional framework. In Austria, that is expected to be Sunday.

In Austria, the exact date must be determined by the Federal Electoral Authority. As in most Member States, elections in Austria are usually held on Sundays. This means that the elections in Austria must take place on 9 June 2024.

Elections to the European Parliament take place every five years. The previous European elections were in May 2019. At the time, both far-right and far-right parties gained ground, but the Greens and Liberals also made significant gains. Christian Democrats and Social Democrats reached historic lows. The European Parliament has seats in Strasbourg and Brussels.
