The conference registration system will open mid-February. Speakers will be notified when the system is open by email and this bullet point will be updated with information when it has been sent.

Speaker registration: All speaker applications from our Call for Abstracts were notified by email on the morning of 1 February 2026 - if you have not received an outcome email in your in-box, please check your email junk / spam folders. If you still cannot find the email, please contact us. Similarly, if you were accepted as a speaker for the event and cannot see your registration email by the date mentioned in the bullet point above, please check your junk email folder, and if not there, get in touch. Speakers will need to register before the end of of the early bird registration period on  31 March 2026. Early registration is required by presenters in order to schedule and promote the event.

Delegate (non-speaker) registration: This will remain open until around a week prior to the event. Early bird registration concludes 31 March, after which a standard fee will apply until registration closes. Standard registration closes 20 April, after which late registration continues at the same price but does not include the option for conference meal.

The early bird conference fee (and speaker registration fee) this year will be £175. Standard Registration (which begins on 1 April) will be £200.

To attend BSP events, speakers and delegates need to be members of the British Society for Phenomenology. If you are not already a member, membership (full and discounted, £40 and £20 respectively) will be added to the conference fee. When you become a member, you receive access to the Journal of the British Society for Phenomenology online for one year. JBSP Online publishes around 25 new research articles a year, and membership includes access to 50+ years of the JBSP. You can become a member at any time, for more information please visit our membership page.

The registration fee includes refreshments throughout the conference, as well as Wi-Fi access.

The registration does not include accommodation and travel, nor the conference meal.

The conference meal - on the evening of day 2 - is optional and costs an additional [PRICE TO BE DETERMINED] which can be paid for during registration. For more details see our Evenings webpage [TO BE CREATED] - and in time, more information on the night will appear there too.

As with all academic events, fees should generally be agreed and paid for by the participant's place of study or employment as part of their professional development. However, we understand under exceptional cases this is not always possible. Accordingly, applications for bursaries will be available for those needing financial assistance and are only open to accepted speakers. There are no delegate (non-speaker) bursaries. There will be attendance bursaries waiving the attendance fee, childcare bursaries, and the BSP President's discretionary bursary. Bursary funds are limited, and if there are more eligible applicants than we can fund, the decision will be made on the strength of the application. These can be applied for during the registration period. Please read on for more information...

Attendees who may need a letter for a visa. For all speakers who have been through an anonymised peer review process during abstract submission and have been selected to present at the conference on the strength of their proposals, we will supply visa letters upon request - please contact us. It may be that prospective delegates (non-speaker attendees) will need a visa letter from the event organisers. Please read on for more information...
