Events Club Forum Celebrates Fifth Consecutive Year in Prague
PRAGUE, Czechia, 30 August–1 September 2026— Europe Congress is pleased to announce the successful conclusion of the 2026 edition of Events Club Forum, which took place from 30 August–1 September in Prague, Czechia. This unique MICE forum consistently connects top-level international event planners with carefully selected MICE service providers from across Europe year after year.
Over 2.5 immersive days of networking and destination discovery, participants attended match-made, oneto-one B2B meetings, networking events at major MICE venues across the city, and destination-focused activities designed to showcase the best of Prague, while immersing themselves in Czechia’s historic capital on city tours and site inspections.
The event featured two dinner evenings hosted at some of Prague’s biggest event venues—the upscale Hilton Prague, which boasts one of Europe’s largest conference facilities and stunning views of the Vltava River; and Maj House of Fun, a multi-story venue with a rooftop bar, panoramic views of Prague, and floors of arcade games, shops, and cafés.
The event brought together 200+ selected participants from across Europe, the US, and Asia. Through a unique combination of exhibition and one-on-one meetings, event planners had the chance to meet with 130+ suppliers based on the regions and services they were most interested in. Networking lunches, city tours, and coffee breaks provided extended opportunities for collaboration.
Five sightseeing tours organized by Czech Convention Bureau showcased the best of Prague and provided an introduction to the city’s history through a walking tour of Prague Castle and Lobkowicz Palace; a Czech beer masterclass with Pilsner, where participants learned from professional brewers and bartenders; a tasting of local Czech specialties and regional products; an e-bike tour of Prague’s panoramic viewpoints; and a walking tour following the sculptures of famous Czech artist David Černý, followed by a tasting of the Czech liquor, Slivovitz.
For the fifth consecutive year, Events Club Forum was hosted at Prague Congress Centre, the top congress center in Czechia, which hosted over 200 events per year. Considered the most beautiful city in the world, centrally located in Europe with easy flight connections around the world, and full of history, varied event spaces, and nightlife, Prague proved yet again to be an ideal setting for events of all sizes.
Limited spots are still available for Europe Congress’ final event of 2026 in Valencia, Spain. For more information or to register, contact Europe Congress at info@europecongress.com or visit www.europecongress.com
