Annual Conference 2026

Prosthodontic Education – Preparing for a Changing World

Dates: Thursday 16th April to Friday 17th April 2026

Venue: International Convention Centre, Centenary Square, Birmingham

The theme for the conference will focus on preparing both our current and future workforce to meet the evolving needs of our population. As the world changes faster than ever, ensuring our healthcare professionals are equipped with the right skills and training is more important than ever. Together, let’s explore what the future holds and how we can stay ahead of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. We have already spoken to multiple sponsors who are keen to deliver an engaging trade show with live demonstrations. Come and enjoy a BSSPD conference like never before!

Birmingham has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, making it an exciting destination for the 2026 conference. The city has seen major investment, with striking new developments reshaping the skyline. Centenary Square and the area around Town Hall have been revitalised, offering stunning public spaces, while an array of new restaurants, bars, and cultural hotspots have brought fresh energy to the city. If you haven’t visited Birmingham recently, you may find it almost unrecognisable! 

Our venue, the ICC, is a world-class conference centre, perfectly located in the heart of this vibrant, diverse city. New for 2026, we are introducing a post-conference networking reception at the end of day one. This will be a fantastic opportunity to reconnect, engage with exhibitors, and enjoy refreshments in a relaxed setting. And with Birmingham’s thriving nightlife just steps away, you can continue the evening with friends and colleagues—perhaps even reminiscing about your undergraduate and trainee days on nearby Broad Street or in Brindley Place.

I look forward to welcoming you to Birmingham in Spring 2026!

Upen Patel President BSSPD 2025/2026
