Connecting Europe Days 2026, Europe’s mobility flagship event, took place from 28 September to 1 October 2026 in Brussels, Belgium.
Opened by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and hosted by Commissioner Apostolos Tzitzikostas, the conference brought together more than than 3,700 participants, including Ministers, politicians, financial institutions, industry representatives, transport stakeholders.
Exploring how Europe’s transport system underpins competitiveness, resilience and global connectivity was a central part of the conference, as was the future of infrastructure funding and financing.
In an increasingly unstable geopolitical environment, conference sessions examined how transport and connectivity policies contribute to competitiveness, strategic autonomy and resilience of essential supply chains, enable military mobility, and strengthen Europe’s ability to act with partners beyond its borders.
