Kosovo made its European Youth Summer Olympic Festival debut at these games.
The mascot for this edition of European Youth Olympic Festival is named P.E.A.K.Y, which is based on a pheasant. Pheasant was chosen as the mascot due to the connection with a Georgian legend about the founding of Tbilisi. The name P.E.A.K.Y is a combination from the words "peak" and "youth".[1]
