Athens, Greece plays host to IPVS 2026, the 38th Annual Conference of the International Papillomavirus Society, from 22 October 2026 to 25 October 2026, welcoming the sector for another closely watched edition. Drawing speakers and delegates from around the world, it offers a focused platform for learning and connection. Because it comes around every year, each edition arrives with genuine anticipation. As the organiser, Kenes Group curates the agenda and keeps the experience running smoothly. Proceedings are hosted at Megaron Athens International Conference Centre, a fitting stage for an event of this scale.
Few cities suit an event like this as well as Athens. As a destination, Athens combines accessibility, hospitality and a character all its own. Between its air links and its local network, getting to and around Athens takes little planning. Hotels close to the venue fill up around event dates, so booking early is wise — Athens is a popular destination year-round. There is life after the last session here: Athens's food scene, culture and landmarks make for a fuller trip.
Talks trace a path through Hpv, Papillomavirus, Cancer Prevention, Virology, Hpv Vaccination and Health Care, pairing hard data with the kind of insight you only get in the room. Expect a packed line-up of panels, fireside chats and interactive sessions. Coffee breaks, lunches and socials are as much a part of the value as the sessions themselves.
Few events pack so much insight, opportunity and inspiration into so few days. Whether you attend to learn, present or connect, IPVS 2026 offers a valuable platform for founders, practitioners and investors.
Rooms in Athens get scarce as the dates approach, so securing a hotel near the venue sooner rather than later is the safer bet.
