NeurIPS 2026 Paris Satellite

NeurIPS 2026, the 40th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems, runs from December 6 to 12, 2026 with its main venue in Sydney and satellite programs in Paris and Atlanta. The Paris satellite runs December 9 to 13 and brings the world’s largest machine learning research conference to France.

NeurIPS typically draws more than 15,000 attendees and sets the research agenda for deep learning, large language models, alignment, optimization and ML systems. The 2026 edition includes tutorials, workshops and an expo alongside the main paper tracks, with paper presentation preferences and author registrations already underway.

The satellite format lets European researchers and practitioners take part in the conference program without travelling to Australia, with local sessions and networking in Paris. For anyone tracking where machine learning research is heading, it is the single most important week on the calendar.
