MEP Awards 2025 - new mandate, new awards, new venue

Every year, The Parliament magazine recognises and celebrates the hard work and policy accomplishments of Members of the European Parliament (MEPs), their Assistants (APAs), and Parliament Staff by presenting awards to honour their outstanding achievements.

This year, as newly elected Members of the European Parliament embark on their first year of the mandate and returning MEPs continue their dedicated service, the celebration will be a sit-down gala dinner, offering the opportunity to network with over 250 EU decision-makers.

Our 21st awards edition this year not only marks the beginning of a new parliamentary term but also recognises those, both new and re-elected, whose contributions over the past year and beyond have inspired us all and will continue to have a lasting impact on the EU.

Join Kelly Agathos and the cast of The Schuman Show at the MEP Awards 2024

We are delighted that Kelly Agathos, co-founder and host of the Schuman Show, will be our host for the ceremony, joining MEP Robert Biedroń.

In addition, the cast of The Schuman Show will present a 30-minute show with their unique take on the Brussels bubble.

They'll bring you the news you didn’t know you missed — in a way you won’t forget - satirising decision makers and disrupting the narratives with absurd theatrical sketches, witty monologues, and catchy songs.
