The 2025 edition is organised by the European Commission in cooperation with the European Urban Initiative and is open to policy makers, urban practitioners, city officials, and advocates for sustainable urban living. The event will involve high-level debates, interactive workshops, and project visits showcasing sustainable urban planning and growth.

The preliminary agenda has been designed to gather valuable input from urban stakeholders to the EU’s future policy agenda for cities. Moreover, it will offer participants the chance to exchange on sustainable urban development solutions and discover practical examples of how cities across Europe are tackling urban transitions.
