Dear Fellow Lions,

in accordance with the traditions and responsibilities entrusted to the President of the Lions Europa Forum, it is my honor and privilege to formally convene the Lions Europa Forum 2026, to be held in Karlsruhe, Germany, from October 22 to 25, 2026.

Under the theme “Water = Life”, this year’s Forum will bring together Lions from across Europe to share knowledge, celebrate our achievements, and collaboratively shape the future of our service. Hosted in the city of Karlsruhe - with its distinctive fan-shaped architecture, 18th-century Baroque palace, and location on the Rhine - the Forum will offer engaging plenary sessions, focused workshops, youth-oriented programs, and opportunities for fellowship and cultural exchange.

I warmly invite you all to take part in this inspiring gathering. Your presence, your voice, and your contribution are vital to the continued strength and unity of our Lions community across Europe.

Further information regarding registration, accommodation, and the full program will be available via the Forum website and official Lions communication channels.
