For over 20 years, The Parliament has recognised outstanding achievements in leadership and public service through its highly respected awards programme. From celebrating the work of individual MEPs to honouring wider contributions across the political landscape, our awards highlight those shaping Europe’s future.
At the core of this tradition is the MEP Awards. As our flagship event, it reflects our long-standing commitment to championing the achievements of elected representatives and continues to draw hundreds of influential guests, including MEPs, Commission staff, Parliamentary staff, ambassadors, embassy staff and other industry stakeholders. The newly launched APA Awards, on the other hand, shine a spotlight on the achievements of Accredited Parliamentary Assistants (APAs), recognising their vital role in supporting the democratic process and the work of MEPs.
These gatherings are among the most significant occasions for EU figures to come together outside of Parliament itself, offering a unique moment to reflect, connect and celebrate.
