Early-bird prices will be available until 22 June 2026. Thereafter fees will rise by 100 EUR. N.B. unregistered content will be withdrawn at the end of early-bird.

What are you paying for?

The conference registration fee includes:

  • Access to all conference panels, labs, roundtables, keynotes, plenaries during the conference, as well as recordings of all content after the conference
  • An opening drinks reception
  • Three lunches and five tea/coffee breaks
  • The conference party will be ticketed as an extra, to be booked at the time of registration. This includes an evening of music, entertainment, and food: more information and the price will be provided before early-bird opens

The online only registration includes a variety of online content including panels, alternate formats, keynotes and plenaries.

The committee felt it was important for the fee to include a fully catered conference, as this lowers the overall participation cost of attending a conference in person and is in line with EASA’s aim to subsidise those with lower-income with the use of differentiated fees. Having a centralised lunch helps to keep delegates together throughout the conference, gives organisers the opportunity to run events and meetings through the lunch break and solves the issue of participants having to find lunch options in town. Warm lunches will be offered on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday; along with refreshment breaks offering tea and coffee before the morning panels on Wednesday onwards, as well as the Tuesday afternoon and the usual mid-morning break.

Moreover, the local committee have worked really hard at securing additional funding, and have managed to get sponsorships and grants in order to keep the conference fees as low as possible. The conference fees include a variety of additional activities such as the Ethnographic Salon, a comedy night, conference sponsored pubs, a concert by the lake and more. See below for some more information, though we will be adding much more as we get closer!

Free city pass

For every EASA2026 delegate, the conference badge will work as a free city pass. On your arrival to the Morasko Campus, come to the conference registration desk to get your badge and start enjoying the free rides. Conference badge entitles the delegates to free use of Poznan’s trams and buses. The pass remains valid until two days after the conference – so why not prolonging your stay and enjoy the weekend in Poznan!

Cultural activities

The EASA biennials always blur the line between a conference and a city, and EASA2026 is no different. Beyond academic sessions and plenaries, EASA2026 will unfold across film screenings, exhibitions, a concert and the traditional EASA party – all located in beautiful spots around the city of Poznan.
