The CIVITAS Forum 2026, the flagship event of the CIVITAS Initiative, will be hosted this year for the first time in a Greek city. 

From September 15 to 17, 2026, Thessaloniki will welcome city representatives, policymakers, industry professionals, transport and urban planners, academics, and mobility enthusiasts from all over Europe and beyond, aiming to exchange ideas, showcase innovative solutions, and build strong, lasting partnerships.
