It is with great pleasure that the European Commission Trainees’ Committee (ECTA) invites you to one of the most cherished traditions of the Blue Book experience and the grand culmination of this traineeship session:

EUROBALL O25 — The Blue Book End-of-Session Gala

Whether you are a trainee of the European Commission, the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union, another EU institution, or a distinguished guest of our Europhile community, you are warmly invited to join us for an unforgettable evening of celebration.

DATE: Saturday, 14 February 2026
TIME: 8:30 PM to 3:00 AM

As the final pages of this chapter are turned, we pause to honour the journey we have shared so far. From tentative introductions to newfound friendships, this traineeship has been a whirlwind of growth, connection, and late-night reflections. Let us now gather, one last time, to celebrate what we have built together.
Since its inception, Euroball has stood as the final operation of the Blue Book experience: a night where elegance meets euphoria, and where memories are forged through music, movement, and meaningful goodbyes.

This is not merely a ball.

It is a rite of passage.

The closing chapter of an extraordinary mission.

This year’s theme is:

MISSION EUROPA: ACCOMPLISHED

You are invited to pause and reflect on your personal journey - what you have learned, overcome, embraced, and become along the way.
Euroball tradition calls for a formal gala.

Dress with intention. Dress with confidence.

Not simply to impress, but to honour your story and the path that brought you here.

This evening marks the successful completion of a shared mission:
one defined by growth, connection, and unforgettable moments.

Mission status: Accomplished.

Final gathering: Euroball 2026.

What awaits you:
• A private venue nestled by the forest, with two indoor dance floors
• Two DJ stages, each offering its own rhythm and atmosphere, curated with care (different styles, genres)
• A free drink upon arrival (beer, wine, soft)
• Happy Hour, buy two drinks for the price of one
• A photobooth to capture the night, with unlimited photos
• Light finger food (we advise dining beforehand)
• Surprise games and prizes to be revealed in due course
