The 71st Annual Conference of the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland will comprise of two face-to-face days (Monday 23 – Tuesday 24 March 2026) and one day fully online (Thursday 26 March 2026). We particularly encourage those who would like to participate online to consider formats such as roundtable discussion and workshops.

All AHGBI members, especially Lusitanists, PGRs and ECAs, are warmly invited to propose the delivery of a paper and/or the organisation of a panel. The AHGBI actively encourages proposals for panels that involve a mixture of career stages, and is keen to encourage within the same panel the participation of retired members of the Association, established scholars in the field, and ECA/PGR speakers. We also welcome other formats, and we encourage members to get in touch with the Conference Secretary with further ideas (please contact Dr Victoria Ríos Castaño : hispanists.​ahgbi@​gmail.​com).
