The 2026 ISHA Annual Scientific Meeting (ISHA 2026) will take place on Thursday 8 to Saturday 10 October 2026 in Bruges, Belgium – a beautiful medieval city where a far-reaching heritage in medical innovation meets cutting-edge modern institutions.
Based at the easily accessible venues of Bruges Meeting & Convention Center (BMCC) and Concertgebouw Bruges, the ISHA 2026 congress will take a "roots to sky" approach, welcoming all – from trainee to expert – to participate and improve their knowledge and skills in hip preservation. The Scientific Programme will be split into Basic and Advanced combined education and research sessions on a selected range of key topics.
In addition, attendees will be able to enjoy a range of other exciting sessions, including re-live surgeries, inspiring keynote lectures, case discussions, free paper presentations and partner society symposia. Pre-conference activities, including regional interest groups and a Basics in Hip Arthroscopy session aimed at early-career professionals, will take place on Wednesday 7 October 2026, while our physiotherapy and rehab colleagues will enjoy a post-conference PT and Sports Rehabilitation programme on Saturday 10 October 2026.
