European Railway Award 2026

The European Railway Award, jointly organised by UNIFE and CER, celebrates the achievements of inspired individuals whose bright ideas, ingenious innovations and bold policy initiatives have contributed to enhance, grow and strengthen rail today and for the future.

The 19th edition of the award ceremony will take place on 2 February 2026, featuring our Rail Champion and Rail Trailblazer laureates, as well as prominent speakers from across the rail sector and the EU institutions. It will be followed by our associations’ joint annual reception.

We hope you will all be able to join us in Brussels at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts for this annual gathering of our community.

Monday, 2 February 2026 (18:30 to 22:30)
