35th International Symposium on ACHD

Wednesday, June 3, 2026, 8:00 AM - Saturday, June 6, 2026, 4:30 PM, Cincinnati, OH

On behalf of all of us at the Cincinnati Children’s Heart Institute and our partners throughout North America, we are delighted to welcome you to the 35th Annual International Symposium on Adult Congenital Heart Disease at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Cincinnati, taking place June 3–6, 2026.

Adults with congenital heart disease represent a rapidly growing, understudied, and underserved population. This educational program is designed to meet the needs of trainees, established pediatric and adult cardiovascular physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, physician assistants, and other health professionals. The meeting will offer extensive didactic and collaborative opportunities for all who care for adults with CHD.

This longstanding collaboration between Cincinnati Children’s, the University of Toronto/University Health Network, and Oregon Health & Science University has grown into the largest ACHD meeting in North America. Every third year, the symposium returns to Cincinnati, and we are thrilled to host this upcoming symposium.

We look forward to an engaging and inspiring symposium with you.

This conference will be IN PERSON only.

1. Describe the epidemiology and clinical spectrum of congenital heart disease across the lifespan.
2. Explain key pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying common ACHD conditions and their complications.
3. Apply evidence-based strategies for diagnosis, imaging, and management of ACHD, including surgical and interventional approaches.
