Invitation to host Magnetism 2026


Following on from previous years, the Magnetism committee are inviting expressions of interest to host the Magnetism 2026 conference from the UK Magnetism community. In recent years, the host has joined the committee to help organise the previous year’s event to get an insight into how the event is organised.

The key criteria upon which expressions of interest will be assessed by the committee are:

  1. Appropriateness of venue including cost
    • Two lecture theatres are required (minimum capacities 200 and 100 theatre style) 
    • Area for posters, exhibition and catering. The area must be able to comfortably accommodate 90 posters, up to 15 exhibitors (table top stands), and provide catering for 200 attendees. 
  2. Travel time/cost/convenience for attendees
  3. Availability of suitable accommodation at reasonable cost
  4. Local organisation on the ground

If you are interested in hosting Magnetism 2026, please submit a proposal by email to vivien.thomas@iop.org 

As Magnetism 2026 is organised by the IOP Magnetism group it is expected that a committee member would be included as a co-chair, to provide support and a link back to the committee.

The proposers should discuss their expression of interests with the Chair of the group committee, Dr Thomas Moore, before submission.
