Cruises & Port Cities Working Group | In-Person Meeting

The Cruises & Port Cities Working Group (AIVP–MedCruise) will convene its next in-person meeting in Taranto, Italy, on 19–20 February 2026.

Hosted by the Port of Taranto, this gathering will bring together representatives from both associations to advance collaborative work on governance, community engagement, mobility, and sustainable port–city relations.

This in-person session will build upon the discussions held during our previous online meetings, continuing our joint work on Governance & Citizens Engagement and Flow Management & Mobility. It will also offer a valuable opportunity for networking, exchange of best practices and exploration of the local context of Taranto — a city where port, heritage and innovation coexist in balance.

The meeting will run for the full day on Thursday, 19th February and until noon on Friday, 20th February.

For those arriving on Wednesday, 18th February, we plan to organise a group dinner, so we kindly ask you to indicate your availability.

PARTICIPATION IS EXCLUSIVE AND RESERVED TO MEMBERS OF THE WORKING GROUP

*Registration deadline: 9th January 2026
