Welcome to ICS 2026, the 56th Annual Meeting of the International Continence Society, taking place from 6 to 9 October 2026 in the vibrant and historic city of Maastricht, the Netherlands.
After the success of our joint ICS-EUS meeting in Abu Dhabi in 2025, ICS is returning to Europe with renewed energy and enthusiasm. We are proud to be supported by a passionate Local Organising Committee, chaired by Gommert van Koeveringe, and to introduce our new ICS Scientific Chair, Francisco Cruz, whose leadership promises a dynamic and multidisciplinary scientific programme.
ICS Annual Meetings are more than conferences. They are a celebration of community, collaboration and cutting-edge science. Attendees often describe ICS as feeling like a family, and Maastricht’s welcoming atmosphere will only enhance that experience. With its compact layout, rich cultural heritage and excellent infrastructure, the city offers a natural setting for meaningful networking and scientific exchange.
