ERS Congress 2027 Milan: Respiratory Congress Guide & List
By Ilyas Kerbal,
The ERS Congress is the world’s largest respiratory-medicine congress. It rotates between European cities each September: Fira Gran Via Barcelona hosted from 5 to 9 September 2026, and the 2027 edition runs from 11 to 14 September 2027 at Allianz MiCo in Milan, plus online. Around 20,000+ participants attend (estimate).
New clinical-trial data and guidelines make it important for respiratory pharma, inhaler and device makers, and diagnostics companies. The exhibition hall is a key channel to pulmonologists.
