Combined Naval Event

The Combined Naval Event (CNE) 2026 is Europe’s leading naval collaboration forum and brings together over 2,200 senior naval leaders, government officials, industry representatives, and international partners from more than 85 nations including key participation from NATO and allied maritime forces. 

The event features six focused theatres covering the full range of naval operations, from fleet readiness and shipbuilding to undersea warfare and multi-domain challenges.

With a programme driven by operational and strategic priorities, CNE 2026 provides a key platform for sharing insights, strengthening partnerships and shaping the future of naval power.
