Recycling Europe’s flagship annual event, the European Recycling Conference (ERC), returns to Brussels on 18 March 2027, bringing Europe’s recycling industry back to the heart of EU policymaking at a defining moment for the sector.
Join recyclers, policymakers, manufacturers, circular economy experts and industry leaders at Sparks Meeting in Brussels as some of Europe’s biggest circular economy files move from political negotiation to implementation — and attention turns to the markets, investment and industrial conditions needed to make Europe’s circular ambitions work in practice.
One conference, three stages
For the first time in its history, ERC 2027 will run across three stages, bringing more sectors, more voices and more focused discussions into one day. The Main Stage will run throughout the day, with a programme covering metals, plastics, paper and trade, combining high-level panel discussions with exclusive fireside chats.
After lunch, ERC will expand to two dedicated Side Stages, running in parallel with the Main Stage and putting the spotlight on tyres and textiles. At the end of the programme, all three audiences will come back together for a networking cocktail reception, bringing participants from across Europe’s recycling value chain together to continue the conversation.
