Pre-CHI Day 2026

VIEW PROGRAMME

The ACM CHI conference is the premier publication venue in the field of HCI, and Scotland-based researchers are contributing extensively to the programme for the 2026 conference which will be held in Barcelona, Spain in mid-April. The Pre-CHI Day is a chance for the Scottish HCI community to see some of the world-leading research going on across Scotland, and allow those not travelling to Spain to talk to authors first-hand and hear about their work.

Over the day, we will have presentations from ACM CHI 2026 full paper authors, with the potential for also having a poster or interactivity session as well (depending on numbers).

The event will be hybrid, and virtual attendance and virtual presentation will both be supported. We expect a mixed audience, including researchers of the Scottish HCI community as well as interested students, designers, industry, practitioners etc., as well as newcomers to the field of HCI.

Register by 31 March to attend in-person or online

Submit a paper or poster by 22 March to be included in the programme.
