Support the Awards in 2026
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.
Now in its 22nd edition, the Awards continue to honour excellence, dedication, and impact across the European Parliament. As MEPs enter the second year of their mandate, this year’s sit-down gala dinner will bring together around 200 EU decision-makers for an evening of recognition, connection, and celebration.
The MEP Awards shine a spotlight on those whose leadership, dedication, and vision continue to shape Europe’s future and inspire meaningful change across the EU.
Be in the room with Europe’s leading policymakers
Attracting MEPs, European Commission and Parliamentary staff, ambassadors, and key stakeholders, the MEP Awards brings together one of the largest and most influential gatherings outside the Parliament itself.
Now in the second year of the parliamentary mandate, this prestigious event offers an unmissable opportunity to connect with Europe’s decision-makers, celebrate excellence, and inspire collaboration that drives real change.
Our venue for 2026
This year, the 2026 ceremony will be held at Albert Hall Brussels.
For many MEPs, this venue provides a rare opportunity to immerse themselves in Belgium’s rich artistic heritage – a luxury often missed due to their demanding schedules.
Hosting the awards at this renowned cultural landmark not only elevates the ceremony but also allows guests to experience one of Brussels’ most celebrated institutions, adding an extra layer of distinction to the evening.
The cocktail reception and dinner will take place in the Forum, which, with its breathtaking neo-classical architecture, offers a magical setting.

Customers reviews
Thanks to The Parliament magazine, I think this is the perfect and the best place to meet with other colleagues and with sponsors and guests. Networks are very, very important. Tourism, transportation… are full of partners and stakeholders, and they are here, so I’m happy to be here.

This [night] is extremely important because you are meeting on a different level. You can easily chat to people and you are finding links and sometimes cooperations. It’s a good way of interlinking.
