The purpose of the ICA is to promote international development and collaboration in all fields of acoustics including research, development, education, and standardisation.
One of the means that ICA achieves this objective is to compile a listing of meetings, congresses, and other acoustical events.
In this section you can:
- Check the schedule of the main international events promoted or organized by ICA International Affiliates and by the main Member Societies.
- Send us the announcement of an event for publication on the CALENDAR OF MEETINGS AND CONGRESSES.
One of ICA’s tasks is to coordinate the International Affiliates and Member Societies in the planning of the main international conferences.
Many major events are already scheduled on a regional rotation basis.
The Master Plan can help in long-term planning to encourage a homogeneous regional distribution of events and to avoid possible overlaps.
The information reported on the Master Plan is public and reports: region (if already planned), event, venue and date (if already defined).

The main international events that are repeated periodically are listed in this section with the aim of facilitating the planning of scientific dissemination at an international level.
Detailed announcements of all events (organized internationally and locally) are listed in the CALENDAR OF MEETINGS AND CONGRESSES.
The events organized, co-organized or promoted by the Member Societies are posted directly in the ICA CALENDAR OF MEETINGS AND CONGRESSES.
