WSAVA/FECAVA/PSAVA World Congress Returns to Warsaw in 2026!

We are thrilled to share wonderful news with our community — the WSAVA/FECAVA/PSAVA World Congress 2026 will take place in Warsaw, Poland!

Originally scheduled for 2020, the event was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and held virtually in 2021. Thanks to the exceptional commitment of the Polish Small Animal Veterinary Association (PSAVA), in collaboration with EXPO XXI and the Warsaw Convention Bureau, Warsaw has once again been chosen to host this world-class event.

During the WSAVA General Assembly in November 2021, delegates from 172 countries unanimously decided that Warsaw would host the congress in 2026 — a recognition of the outstanding preparations and dedication shown by the Polish organizers.

The WSAVA/FECAVA/PSAVA World Congress is one of the most significant global gatherings in veterinary medicine. Each year, it brings together thousands of small animal veterinarians from around the world, offering a rich scientific program and unparalleled opportunities for learning, collaboration, and exchange of professional experience.

We look forward to meeting colleagues from across the globe in Warsaw in 2026 — for an inspiring celebration of veterinary science, innovation, and international friendship.
