The European Week of Regions and Cities (#EURegionsWeek) is the biggest annual Brussels-based event dedicated to cohesion policy. This year edition of the #EURegionsWeek (EWRC) will take place from 7-10 October 2024.
Under the motto Empowering communities, the event will focus on four themes:
• Competitiveness and convergence: two sides of the same coin
• Regions strengthening European Democracy
• Smart and sustainable growth for regions
• Regions got talent
The kick-off meeting for partners took place on the 22nd February 2024, when EURegionsWeek organisers – European Commission Directorate General Regional and Urban Policy and European Committee of the Regions – presented this year’s edition and novelties.
The event will host various formats of sessions, which will focus on regional partnerships and involvement of the local & regional decision makers. The institutions and organisations interested in organising thematic sessions will be able to submit their application from 28 February to 2 April 2024.
More details, including the Guide for event partners will be published on the EWRC website.

The European Week of Regions and Cities is an annual four-day event during which cities and regions showcase their capacity to create growth and jobs, implement European Union Cohesion Policy, and prove the importance of the local and regional level for good European governance.
The event has become a neutral platform to discuss common challenges for Europe’s regions and cities by bringing together a diverse community of speakers and participants.
