IDWeek 2026 starts on October 21, 2026.

The 2026 conference takes place at Walter E. Washington Convention Center.

The organizer lists infectious disease experts, residents and students among the audience.

Residents and students get exposure to the field, while clinicians outside infectious diseases and antimicrobial stewardship would find much of the program too specialised, and the exhibit hall mainly serves diagnostics and therapeutics buyers.

Physicians and researchers at medical society meetings usually wear business casual, with some presenters in suits, and comfortable shoes are useful in a large convention center like Walter E. Washington.

The published program includes more than 100 sessions and symposia.
