From data to impact – shaping the digital age

The dynamic field of open data is changing the way in which we understand, engage with, and shape our world. From fostering transparency and fuelling research to triggering technological advances and informing policymakers, the potential of open data is unlimited.  

The Publications Office of the European Union is thrilled to announce the 2025 edition of EU Open Data Days, scheduled for 19-20 March 2025 at the European Conference Centre in Luxembourg (ECCL) and online. The registrations will open in late autumn 2024. This event, organised by the team at data.europa.eu, the official portal for European data, aims to promote the harnessing of open data's power and will bring together data providers, enthusiasts, and re-users from Europe and beyond. 

Whether you’re part of the private sector working as a data publisher, a data analyst, or a public policymaker, an academic, or even just a passionate advocate for open data, this event is for you.
