9th Summit of the European Political Community
12 November 2026
The 9th European Political Community Summit will take place on the 12 November 2026 in Dublin, Ireland.
It will bring over 50 European Heads of State or Government together with leaders of key European and international institutions, for informal political and strategic discussions.
Welcome message from the Taoiseach
Céad míle fáilte!
It is a pleasure to welcome you to Ireland for the meeting of the European Political Community.
On 12 November, Leaders from across the continent will come to Dublin to share their perspectives on the most pressing issues of the day. The EPC was established in 2022 to promote political dialogue and cooperation within the wider European family.
It has since become an important and unique forum where Europe’s Leaders meet to address economic, political and security challenges of shared concern.
The overarching theme for this, the ninth Summit, is ‘Europe – strong, secure and connected’. I very much look forward to welcoming my counterparts to Dublin and to what I hope will be important and productive discussions
