Held every two years, the IWA World Water Congress & Exhibition is the leading global event for water and allied professionals, covering the full water cycle. The 15th edition of the Congress will build on the success of the 2024 event in Toronto and provide a showcase for sharing and advancing real-world innovation and options to deliver that action.
Under the theme 'Water action – the path to resilience and prosperity,' WWCE 2026 will bring together thought-leaders, decision makers, researchers, and innovators from across and beyond the water sector. The Congress will feature a comprehensive technical programme selected by a global expert committee, alongside keynote sessions, high-level panels, leadership forums, innovation and technology showcases, and an integrated trade exhibition.
With strong support from the UK water sector, the Glasgow Congress will offer a unique opportunity to exchange knowledge, explore regional and global water challenges, and connect with peers from sectors including utilities, government, academia, industry, finance, ICT, urban planning, and civil society.
