As far as the airline did not notify you of the cancellation not less than 14 days, and the flight is under the EU Regulation, the answer is a big yes. Travelers can get a refund, as well as compensation at the same time.
Nevertheless, for you to get a refund, you will be asked by the airline to sign a waiver. Certain waivers are known for incorporating forfeiture of the reimbursement clause; hence, it becomes impossible for you to be compensated. Therefore, if you are looking forward to filing a claim, there is a need for reading the fine prints that you have been given to sign.
Some airlines are known for offering vouchers, though they cannot be of the same value as compared to what you are entitled to. For instance, if the airline decides to give you a voucher worth €250, yet you are entitled to get €600, you can claim the remaining amount. Moreover, you can consider returning the voucher for you to get full reimbursement in cash.
