Billed as the world’s premier electrophysiology (EP) event, it brings together the global heart rhythm community to share late‑breaking science, emerging technologies and best practice in arrhythmia care.

Who should attend

• Electrophysiologists, cardiologists and arrhythmologists specialising in atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, device therapy, pacing and cardiac resynchronisation therapy.
• EP fellows, nurses, physiologists, industry professionals and researchers interested in ablation, devices, digital health and innovation in heart rhythm management.

Programme focus

Heart Rhythm 2026 will feature more than 200 expert‑led sessions, late‑breaking clinical trials, Hyde Park debates, hands‑on learning, abstract and poster presentations, and an exhibit hall showcasing the latest EP technologies. Highlights include Global Summit 2026 on sports, exercise and the athlete’s heart, the Heart Rhythm Bowl, and the Heart Rhythm Gala supporting research, education and advocacy in arrhythmia care.
