The AIP runs biennial Congresses to bring the Australian Physics community together. A new host is chosen each time, and the program committee draws heavily on input from the topical groups.
The 24th Congress is scheduled for Adelaide, for 11-16 December, 2022 (this was postponed due to the corona virus pandemic from 2020).
Here is a complete list of previous AIP congresses with details of where to access the programme and possibly the abstracts.
