WHAT TO EXPECT AT ICSES 2026
WELCOME MESSAGE
On behalf of the ICSES 2026 Organizing Committee, and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to invite you to attend and participate in the 16th ICSES Congress taking place September 22nd – September 25th, 2026, in Vancouver British Columbia.
The 2026 Congress will bring together World experts in the field of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery to share and discuss scientific questions, achievements, issues and challenges relevant to our discipline. Delegates from around the world will gather together to exchange new ideas, make and renew friendships, network, and collaborate on future endeavors and projects.
Additionally, we encourage you to not miss out on the opportunity to explore our wonderful host city of Vancouver, a place where the sparkling waters of the Pacific Ocean meet the snow-capped peaks of local mountains. Where an urban rainforest reflects off the glass of an ever-changing skyline. And where an award-winning convention centre, world-renowned cuisine and a collaborative network of magnificent hotels are all within walking distance.
We hope you will join us for a masterpiece of outstanding education and take a little extra time to enjoy the spectacular and unique beauty of this region.
We look forward to welcoming you to ICSES 2026 Vancouver!
George S. Athwal, MD, FRCSC
ICSES 2026 Course Chair
