Registration and accommodation

Registration is now open

Before you book

All delegates must pay a registration fee.  Non-members of BASEES are encouraged to join the Association, one benefit being access to a reduced conference fee.  To qualify for a reduced conference fee existing members should renew their membership by 1 April 2024.  Non-members may join during the booking process to take advantage of the reduced conference fee.  See the BASEES website for further details of membership.

Registration fees

Registration includes tea and coffee at breaks but does not include any meals.

Remote attendance: 

We are welcoming remote paper presentations. However, we cannot accept fully remote panels. The Chair of a panel, who can also be one of the presenters, must attend the Congress in-person to lead the session and facilitate the discussion. We are operating a limited hybrid model. Delegates registering for remote attendance will be able to present their paper via Zoom and listen into all paper/panels. Full hybrid, i.e. using special 360° camera, mic and speaker equipment, will only be available in a small number of rooms.

En-suite rooms have their own shower, toilet and wash basin. Standard rooms have a shared bathroom and are cheaper. Please note that Full English Breakfast is included in the cost of your room and linen and towels are provided.
