Spine care increasingly requires coordinated input from surgery, imaging, biology and rehabilitation. Eurospine 2026 takes place from 7 to 9 October 2026 at Gothia Towers, Svenska Mässan in Gothenburg and frames a programme that connects scientific discovery with clinical practice.
Practical information for Eurospine 2026
The annual meeting runs over three official days from Wednesday 7 to Friday 9 October 2026. Online registration opened on 24 March 2026 and the organisers provide tools such as an interactive programme planner, an official app and discounted bus transfers to ease logistics. The venue is Gothia Towers, Svenska Mässan in Gothenburg.
Programme highlights and new formats
The 2026 programme blends education and scientific debate with formats designed for applied learning. Attendees will find Masterclasses, Case Discussions, Lunch Symposia, Breakfast Clubs, the new Spine Meets series and Audience Favourite Debates. New elements include Spine Meets linking surgery with mechanobiology and elite sports medicine and a Case Discussion called The Case that fooled us that examines unexpected clinical courses.
Pre-day courses are offered with separate accreditation. Topics include Ageing Spine, Spinal Trauma, Introduction to Robotics & Navigation and Introduction to Endoscopy. The full congress is accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education and carries specific ECMECs for delegates.
Key figures and accreditation
Eurospine 2026 is accredited by EACCME with a maximum allocation of 18.5 ECMECs for the Annual Meeting. Pre-day courses have separate credits: Ageing Spine 5.5 ECMECs, Spinal Trauma 5.0 ECMECs, Introduction to Robotics & Navigation 3.0 ECMECs and Introduction to Endoscopy 3.0 ECMECs.
Registration fees are published by category and timing, covering EUROSPINE members, non-members, residents and pre-day course options. A Charity Run/Walk with a specific fee is also part of the programme offerings.
B2B prospecting and networking at Gothia Towers
For commercial teams the priority is targeted visibility. Map sessions such as Spine Meets and Masterclasses that attract the clinicians and decision makers you want to reach and schedule meetings around dedicated networking times. The exhibition area and the EUROSPINE booth act as fixed points for on-site engagement; plan short demos and clinical outcome summaries to fit expo traffic patterns.
Prepare concise value propositions focused on clinical outcomes and evidence, and supply quick access to case data or publications. Use the app and programme planner to fix meetings, announce pop-up demos and direct prospects to your stand during breaks and themed networking events.
Registration timeline and deadlines
Important operational dates include abstract submission opening on 16 January 2026 and closing on 24 February 2026. Early registration deadlines and regular registration windows are set across the spring and summer, with late fees applying from 9 September 2026. Check course-specific booking rules where pre-day courses are taken together with or separate from congress registration.
Final note
Eurospine 2026 stages multidisciplinary formats that tighten the link between research and everyday spine practice. If you aim to engage the clinical community, align your presence with session themes and prioritise concise, evidence-led materials.
