RSS International Conference 2026

The RSS conference brings together the statistics and data science community from across the UK, Europe and around the world to share knowledge and learn about latest developments.

With over 700 attendees from more than 40 countries and all sectors using statistics and data, this is a must-attend event for professionals, researchers, students and everyone interested in the cutting edge of statistical methodology and the impactful application of statistics and data science.

We are delighted to be heading to Bournemouth on England’s south coast. Famous for its warm sandy beaches, lively cultural scene and Victorian architecture, Bournemouth was originally scheduled to host the conference in 2020 before the pandemic necessitated moving the event online.

The 2026 Conference will take place at the Bournemouth International Centre with the welcome reception held on Bournemouth pier and the conference dinner at the Bournemouth Pavilion.

As usual, the conference programme will feature top keynote speakers, invited topic sessions, professional development workshops, contributed and rapid-fire talks, and poster presentations, as well as many opportunities for networking.
