At 11:30 AM, youth platforms will open at the Vitebsk Concert Hall as part of the youth forum, showcasing the main areas of work with youth.

The "Trud Krut" (Labor is Cool) platform will feature an exhibition on the development of the student team movement, a photo zone with poufs and hashtags, and a guitar master class by student teams from Polotsk State University.

The "Tsvori Dobro" (Do Good) platform will present the "Dobroe Serdtse" (Kind Heart) volunteer movement. Volunteers will conduct master classes on gingerbread decorating and proper table setting, organize and hold a charity event to raise funds for the treatment of Roman Andriushonus from Vitebsk, and offer free postcards for attendees to send in gratitude to medical staff and teachers.

The "Zhivi Yarko" (Live Brightly) platform will showcase innovative projects from the republican youth competition "100 Ideas for Belarus." Additionally, participants can create 360 video selfies, take photos in a themed photo booth, and print their pictures on-site.

The "Belarus – krynica natkhnennya" (Belarus – Source of Inspiration) platform will bring together creative youth from the northern region. Young craftsman Nikita Shkredov will conduct a pottery master class. A photo exhibition of works by participants of the republican competition "Selfie&Fota z vyshyvankai" (Selfie & Photo with Vyshyvanka) will also be held here.

The "Bud Zdorov" (Be Healthy) platform is the place for sports records at the forum, featuring table football, Just Dance and karaoke battles, a virtual sports Olympiad, and a step aerobics master class. There will also be serious strength exercises: Yevgeny Shavchenko, European deadlift champion in the middleweight category and a participant in the torch relay for the II European Games, will demonstrate his strength by bending 100mm nails into hearts with his hands, bursting a hot water bottle with his lungs, tearing a deck of cards, and lifting a kettlebell for all interested participants.
