Message from the Organising Committee

Welcome to Ahmedabad

It is with great enthusiasm that we invite you to ASICON 2026, to be held at the state-of-the-art Gujarat University Convention & Exhibition Centre (GUCEC), Ahmedabad from 17th to 19th December 2026.

ASICON has remained the live wire of the surgical fraternity across the subcontinent for more than eight decades. Carrying forward this legacy, Ahmedabad steps in once again hosting ASICON for the second time, the last one being back in 2013 in a city celebrated for its rich history, academic spirit, warm people, incredible food, and a unique blend of tradition and modernity takes pride in hosting the 86th edition of this prestigious congress.

Across four days, you can look forward to insightful plenaries, interactive panel discussions with renowned faculty, hands-on skill courses for residents and consultants, spaces to present your best work, and plenty of opportunities to collaborate, learn, and grow.

And while you’re here, the energy of Gujarat will surround you its Festivals, Craft Traditions, Stepwells, Riverfronts, and the unbeatable charm of Ahmedabad. From the peaceful Sabarmati Riverfront to the intricate beauty of Adalaj Stepwell, from the lively lanes of Manek Chowk to the serenity of Sabarmati Ashram, the city offers unforgettable experiences. Students and young surgeons will especially love exploring places like Science City, Kankaria Lake, and the buzzing CG Road and Law Garden markets.

During your stay, you all have the chance not just to learn, but to explore, unwind, and enjoy Ahmedabad which promises great conversations, amazing food, beautiful sunsets, and memories you all take home after the conference ends.

Come for the science, stay for the culture and enjoy Gujarat’s legendary warmth and hospitality.

We look forward to welcoming you to ASICON 2026 in Ahmedabad.
Long Live ASI
