Information Architecture Conference 2026 (IAC26), the 27th annual gathering for academics and practitioners in Information architecture (IA), returns to the Arch Street Meeting House in Philadelphia for the second year in a row from April 14 - 18, 2026. Building on last year’s success, IAC26 will feature an engaging mix of fast-paced lightning talks and in-depth sessions, all centered around the theme "Navigating Complexity".
