ACC.26 convenes from March 28 to 30 2026 in New Orleans, LA, gathering thousands of cardiovascular professionals from around the globe—including physicians, nurses, allied health specialists, researchers, and industry partners—to connect, learn, and be inspired. The event blends in‑person attendance with a robust virtual platform, offering a hybrid format that accommodates both on‑site participants and remote delegates.

The scientific program features more than 200 live sessions covering the latest advancements in cardiovascular medicine, with on‑demand access through a complimentary three‑month trial of ACC Anywhere for all professional registrants. Attendees can revisit any session, explore cutting‑edge trial summaries, and watch video interviews that highlight emerging research and clinical practice insights. In addition to live presentations, the virtual Poster Hall showcases over 4,500 posters organized into 11 distinct learning pathways, enabling focused exploration of specific topics such as interventional cardiology, heart failure, preventive cardiology, electrophysiology, and imaging.

Faculty and presenters, drawn from leading academic institutions and clinical centers, deliver content designed to translate directly into daily practice improvements and enhanced patient care. While individual speaker names are not listed, the program emphasizes practical, evidence‑based strategies and the integration of new guideline‑directed therapies. Session recordings, abstracts, and journal scans are made available through the meeting coverage page, providing continuous updates on the hottest latest‑best‑clinical‑trials (LBCTs) and other breakthrough findings.

Professional development is a core objective; participants can claim credit or a certificate of attendance by the June 30 deadline, and the three‑day professional registration includes the free ACC Anywhere trial, granting unrestricted access to more than 5,000 videos from ACC’s Annual Scientific Session and other top meetings throughout the year. The event also encourages ongoing engagement through post‑conference resources, allowing attendees to continue their education long after the live sessions conclude.

ACC.26 serves as a catalyst for knowledge exchange, networking, and collaborative innovation within the cardiovascular community, positioning attendees to return to their practices equipped with actionable insights and a deeper understanding of contemporary cardiology challenges and solutio
