The 26th World Congress of Psychiatry (WCP 2026) is a global psychiatry conference held in Stockholm, Sweden, featuring a program of symposia, courses, and panel discussions on themes such as global mental health, neurobiology, psychiatric education, and policy. It is organized by Kenes Group and is designed as a truly global meeting point, accountable to the World Psychiatric Association's worldwide membership and its principles of equality, inclusion, development, and transcultural perspectives.

Why attend here

In late September, Stockholm’s mild autumn air is perfect for strolling the cobbled streets of Gamla Stan between sessions, and the Stockholmsmässan in Älvsjö is just a short train ride from the city’s archipelago views. Take a break to savor fresh herring or a fika with cinnamon buns at a nearby café, then wander the Vasa Museum’s towering ship—a uniquely Swedish dose of history that grounds the congress’s global psychiatry conversations in local calm.
