Murcia Región Europea Program El Pinchazo

Television Quiz “The Puncture”
The Directorate-General for the European Union and the Europe Direct Center of the Region of Murcia are organizing a new edition of the television quiz “The Puncture,” broadcast on 7TV, with the aim of introducing young people to Europe and the European Union through questions and challenges on general knowledge and European institutions.

The three schools selected for this edition were IES Vega Media in Alguazas, Centro de Enseñanza Samaniego in Alcantarilla, IES Luis Manzanares in Torre Pacheco, and IES El Carmen in Murcia. Each school participated with two student contestants and the option of having substitutes.

The quiz maintained the general structure of the previous edition, incorporating new challenges and games related to Europe and the European Union. The format included a semi-final with all four participating schools and a final between the two highest-ranked teams, with both phases taking place within the same program.

Prior to the recording, an informational meeting was held with the participating centers to coordinate organizational aspects, answer questions, and provide information about the competition. Identifying materials were also prepared for the participants, including t-shirts to wear during the recording.
