22nd Conference of the European Passengers’ Federation
13-14 June 2025
EPF’s 2025 annual conference will take place in Swindon, UK on 13 & 14 June.
The programme will focus on bringing forward best practices on four topics:
- Back to state operated public transport? From deregulation back to regulation particularly drawing on the British experience;
- Ticketing and information from regional to crossing the channel (not only Eurostar, also sea links and coach);
- Women in transport;
- Focus on the passenger? The work programme of the new EU Commission.
The conference will be a mix of presentations, working sessions and panel discussions and you will be able to both gain new knowledge and contribute with your own.
Venue: Steam Museum Swindon
Programme: a detailed programme will be published by February 2025
