The EPA
The EPA is an association which was created in Strasbourg in 1983 by Members of the
European Parliament. Its aim is to
forge closer bonds between all members of the European Union. To accomplish this mission and to encourage meetings between Members of the European Parliament, as well as with various national representatives, and furthermore for the
purpose of receiving groups of visitors, the EPA offers its premises to the Parliamentarians.
• In STRASBOURG: the rooms in the building located at 76, allée de la Robertsau; these rooms are in the head office of the EPA, which is situated near the European institutions.
• In BRUSSELS: the Members' Bar, located on the ground floor of the ASP building and exclusively reserved for Members of the European Parliament.
The EPA also organises activities (conferences, guided visits, meetings, meals, etc.) for its members in Brussels and Strasbourg. These events can be organised in partnership with other European organisations.
Outside sessions of the European Parliament, the premises in Strasbourg are available to all European institutions:
the Council of Europe, the permanent representations to the COE,
the European Court of Human Rights... all requests for availability need to be submitted to the City of Strasbourg.
