CIfA is delighted to announce that the CIfA2026 conference will be hosted over Tuesday 28 April and Wednesday 29 April 2026.
We are hosting CIfA2026 as an in-person conference, hosted live in Edinburgh, UK and there will be post-event online recordings also available.
There will be two full days of engaging content incorporating keynote addresses, wide-ranging sessions and training workshops in a live in-person environment. If you are not available to attend in-person, do not worry you will have the option to watch the recorded content in your own time.
The objective of CIfA's annual conference is to showcase archaeological practice and innovation, providing a place for discussion and learning from each other's experiences to create a stronger, more resilient archaeological community.
