About Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS)
NeurIPS is an annual conference bringing together researchers and industry professionals in artificial intelligence and machine learning to present and discuss the latest innovations and research.
NeurIPS 2026
The Fortieth Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems runs 6–12 December 2026 in Sydney, Australia — with, unusually, satellite conferences in Atlanta and Paris running 9–13 December.
NeurIPS is a machine learning conference: the venue where much of the foundational work behind modern AI was first published. Acceptance is fiercely competitive, and the December programme — main proceedings, workshops, tutorials and an industry expo — functions as the AI field's annual summit.
The multi-site format matters for planning: the main conference is Sydney, and the satellite venues carry their own registration. A specific Sydney venue has not been named on the conference site.
Key Topics
