The next EFDN #Morethanfootball Conference will take place from the 20th until the 22nd of March 2023 at the Benito Villamarín Stadium of Real Betis Balompié in Seville, Spain. This event will be the next European gathering for our Community and Social Responsibility (CSR) network after the successful 18th EFDN Conference that took place in Budapest in November 2022, hosted by EFDN Member Ferencvárosi TC at the Groupama Arena.
