Conference registration is required for all presenters and attendees. Registration includes refreshments (coffee and snacks), lunches, and a wine reception, as well as admission to all performances hosted at Queen Mary University of London and the Whitechapel Gallery (1–6 September). All conference fees include one year of TaPRA membership (£35 standard / £17 concession), beginning on 2 September 2026 and running until the 2027 annual conference.
TaPRA is especially committed to supporting students, as well as unaffiliated researchers and artists. A limited number of bursaries will be available, alongside concession rates for these colleagues. In an effort to keep costs manageable, TaPRA has frozen delegate rates this year and is offering discounted on-campus accommodation.
Early booking is strongly recommended and will assist with planning. Discounted Early Bird rates are available until 15 June.
