From August 15–21, 2026, Bremen will host the 35th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence once again organised jointly with the European Artificial
Intelligence Association as IJCAI-ECAI 2026. Since its inception in 1969, IJCAI has played a pivotal role as a forum to showcase the frontiers of artificial intelligence research and applications and thus represents the oldest continuously running
conference on artificial intelligence. It is widely regarded as a top-tier conference, meaning it is among the most selective and highly respected venues in the field, and the accepted papers are considered among the most innovative and influential
in AI research. Since 2016, IJCAI has been held annually, with each edition organized in a different host city under the responsibility of a Local Arrangements Committee.
For the 2026 edition, the bid to host the IJCAI-ECAI 2026 was won by the committee chaired by Prof. Tanja Schultz of Universität Bremen, Prof. Frank Kirchner of Universität
Bremen and German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), and Prof. Monika Michaelis of Universität Bremen. The work of the Local Arrangement Committee in 2026 is supported by three offices: the U Bremen Research Alliance, German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), and the German Informatics Society (GI).
IJCAI typically attracts over 3,000 participants, offering a scale that safeguards intellectual diversity while remaining compact enough to enable meaningful scientific interaction. It brings together leading technical researchers, university experts, and
industry professionals from around the world. In 2026, the conference is held jointly with the European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI), a major European AI meeting
organised under the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI), a non-profit organisation that promotes AI research and collaboration across Europe an. ECAI serves
as one of EurAI’s flagship events and provides a platform for presenting scientific advances as well as a forum do discuss and disseminate European AI research directions.
