The International City of Peace and Justice
Join us in The Hague, home to the world's most important legal institutions
Hilton The Hague
Where the World Comes to Decide
The Hague is the legal capital of the world. Home to the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, the International Criminal Court, and over 200 international organizations, it’s where the most significant legal decisions affecting nations are made.
For a summit connecting EU and Arab legal professionals, there is no more fitting location. The Hague represents neutrality, international cooperation, and the rule of law—the very principles that underpin cross-border legal practice.
Our venue, the Hilton The Hague, sits in the prestigious Embassy Quarter, steps from the Dutch Parliament and within walking distance of the Peace Palace. You’ll be surrounded by the institutions that shape international law.
