The 41st ACEM Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM 2026) takes place from 22 to 26 November 2026 at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre in Boorloo (Perth), Western Australia. It is organised by the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine (ACEM). The theme is "Coast to Coast – Care and Connect."
The ASM is the College's flagship meeting. It brings the emergency medicine community together to share knowledge, exchange ideas, explore new directions and celebrate the profession. The organisers describe Perth as a gateway to adventure, from Rottnest Island and its quokkas to the Margaret River wine region and Kings Park, one of the world's largest inner-city parks.
Programme
- A three-day scientific programme with keynote presentations, evidence-based sessions across a range of topics, and clinical updates
- Hands-on workshops, which the organisers say are filling fast

The 2026 programme is being published on the official site. The 2025 programme PDF is available there as a reference.
