Dear music therapy community,
We are delighted to share some exciting updates about the upcoming 18th World Congress of Music Therapy, which will take place in Bologna, Italy.
To welcome an even greater number of presentations and foster dialogue among authors, the pre-conferences and the Opening Ceremony have been moved to Tuesday, July 7.
This means we now have an extra day together – the congress will run from July 7 to 12, 2026.
We warmly invite all participants to join us for the Opening Ceremony on the evening of July 7 – a moment of celebration and connection as we begin this global gathering of the music therapy community.
The registration fee remains unchanged, offering you more congress days at the same cost – a wonderful opportunity to fully experience the rich program, creative exchanges and sense of community that make WCMT so special.
Both the pre-conference and the official congress programs are being finalized and will be shared soon.
🗓️ Mark your calendar: registrations open on November 3!
Stay tuned to the WCMT2026.ORG and our social media channels for upcoming announcements and details.
We look forward to welcoming you to Bologna for an inspiring congress!
