Why attend Expat Day when moving to Luxembourg?
Meet people who can help with your day-to-day life
When moving abroad, administrative tasks pile up: housing, banking, insurance, schools, leisure activities… It’s not always easy to know who to ask for help or to compare the answers you find online.
Expat Day helps answer these many questions by bringing together various service providers in one place. You’ll find banks, insurance companies, real estate developers, and schools where you can ask questions to better understand how different services work in Luxembourg.
Building Connections Beyond Work
But as every expat knows, having a place to live and a job isn’t always enough to feel at home. Social connections are built gradually, especially when you arrive alone or are accompanying your spouse on a work assignment.
This meet-and-greet event can be an opportunity to strike up a conversation with other expats, discover a community, or share your experiences settling in. You don’t need to know anyone already to come!
Just Arrived’s tip: Don’t necessarily try to make as many connections as possible. A conversation that continues, an activity to try, or an invitation to a future get-together can already make a difference.
Discovering Luxembourg Beyond the Initial Settling-In Process
Where to go on the weekend? What activity to try? How can you get to know the country’s different regions better? This is a great way to start exploring your new country and settling in. Every year, regional tourism offices come to showcase Luxembourg’s treasures and offer new ideas for things to see and do.
Whether you’ve been here for a few weeks or have lived here for several years, keep an open mind: your next favorite activity might be one you hadn’t even thought of.
Since 2023, an event to help you discover your host country
With each edition, Luxembourg Expat Day aims to introduce expats to Luxembourg’s services, cuisine, culture, and tourism. So don’t hesitate to attend with your family to get to know your new surroundings better, meet local stakeholders, and find opportunities to participate in community life.
At the 2026 event, visitors enjoyed musical performances, food stands, and presentations on services and activities in Luxembourg, among other things. Visitors even had the chance to taste Luxembourgish wines, while children enjoyed the face-painting booth.
Key Figures for Expat Day 2026
- Approximately 9,700 visitors
- More than 40 booths.
How to Prepare for Your Visit to Expat Day 2027?
Expat Day 2027 should also help you identify services that will be useful as you settle in, find ideas for outings, and connect with organizations that can support your integration into Luxembourg.
If you’re coming with your family, check out the activities planned for children and the age groups involved. Once the venue is confirmed, review your route and the accessibility conditions for strollers or people with limited mobility.
Checklist for Making the Most of Your Expat Day
- Check the venue, schedule, and admission requirements as the event approaches.
- Identify the exhibitors and activities that meet your needs.
- Jot down your main questions before you go.
- Bring something to jot down contact information and other useful details.
- Keep some time open for networking and exploring.
- After the visit, follow up with the people you’d like to continue talking to.
Make room for new connections as you settle in
Settling in Luxembourg also means gradually building a life where you feel at home. A point of contact, an idea for an activity, a new connection: these concrete milestones can help you make your new environment your own.
Luxembourg Expat Day offers an opportunity to dedicate a day to this exploration, whether you’re just starting your expat journey or already well-settled.
Mark Sunday, September 5, 2027, on your calendar and invite a friend or a newly arrived colleague to join you. You may have just as much to discover as you do to share.
