UK Kidney Week 2026: New Dates

The UK Kidney Association is pleased to announce that UK Kidney Week 2026 will be held from 10 – 12 March 2026 at the Harrogate Convention Centre. This adjustment from our traditional June dates is to accommodate the European Renal Association (ERA) Congress, scheduled for 3 – 6 June 2026 in Glasgow. This change ensures that our community can fully engage in both events without scheduling conflicts.

UK Kidney Week 2026 proposals and abstracts

There will be no late-breaking abstract call for UKKW 2025 as abstracts for UKKW 2026 will open 2 July 2025.

We invite all members of the kidney care community to contribute to the UKKW 2026 programme where possible. Session proposal submissions are scheduled to open on 30 June 2025 and close on 28 July 2025. This is an excellent opportunity to shape the conference by presenting innovative ideas, sharing research findings and leading discussions on pressing topics in UK nephrology.
