AQUACULTURE EUROPE 2026 - Ljubljana Slovenia – Sept 28 - Oct 1, 2026

Since 1976, EAS has been bringing people together for the sustainable development of European aquaculture. As we celebrate our 50 birthday, we look back on key moments and key persons that made EAS what it is today. And we also look forward - continuing to expand our student activities and network and propose benefits for members that are suited to their profile and needs. We will celebrate this milestone throughout the year on social media, and in person at Aquaculture Europe 2026 in Ljubljana, where we invite EAS members to join the celebrations.

AE2026 will take place at the Gospodarsko Razstavisce Exhibition and Congress Centre, about 20 minutes walk from the city centre.

AE2026 will feature a trade exhibition, where regional and international companies will present their latest products and services. The AE events also feature special forums for industry, where presentations and panel discussions focus on relevant and timely issues for the sector. Other industry-oriented events will take place around the trade exhibition, and technical tours will be organised.

The AE event is a focal point for meetings of European associations, satellite workshops of EU projects and other events. We can provide options for your meeting during this event.

LACQUA26 will take place from October 27–28, 2026, at the Real Intercontinental Hotel in San Salvador, El Salvador.

This joint effort reflects El Salvador’s commitment to promoting innovation, collaboration, and regional growth in aquaculture across Latin America and the Caribbean.
