Annual Meetings


The EAA Annual Meetings are the highlight of the EAA year, bringing together colleagues from all over the world to discuss important issues in research, heritage management and commercial practice, ethics and theory, and the latest results of fieldwork. With over 3,000 delegates and more than 250 sessions, the EAA Annual Meetings have grown to be an essential event on the European archaeological scene.

The friendly atmosphere and lively social programme provide excellent opportunities for networking. Each Annual Meeting has its own academic and culturally distinctive signature.
