IMCC InFocus: Basque Country 2026
10-12 May
Welcome to the Basque Country!
Join us in Bilbao for IMCC InFocus 2026, a three-day immersive program celebrating creativity, culture, and connection in Spain’s Basque Country. From private access to the Guggenheim Bilbao and the Museum of Fine Arts to an exclusive experience at the world-renowned Basque Culinary Center, this program offers an inside look at one of Europe’s most inspiring regions.
Early-bird registration will open in November 2025. IMCC InFocus events will be limited to 100 seats and will focus on the immediate area the congress is held. There will be a reduced number of sessions and a emphasis on visiting museums/cultural spaces and a behind the scenes tour.
