The Linguistics Colloquium is an international conference series with a long tradition, see History in the menu above. The conference takes place annually (usually in September) and welcomes submissions from all fields of linguistics. Conference languages are English and German, plus often the language of the hosting country. This website is meant to be a permanent entry point to inform interested scientists about recent and future editions of the conference, and to point them to the respective local websites for further information. On his and Heinrich Weber's request, the website was created as a followup of a similar site which had been maintained by Wilfried Kürschner for many years.
Please also have a look at the Linguistics Colloquium's Wikipedia entry (in German).
