ASGBI International Surgical Congress 2027 is the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland annual congress, scheduled for 21 to 23 May 2027 at Manchester Central Convention Complex. The ASGBI congress page describes the annual congress as the association’s premier event for general surgeons, surgical residents and healthcare professionals, with a remit across general surgery and related subspecialties. The page lists the expected audience as consultant surgeons, SAS or equivalent doctors, surgical residents, medical students, allied healthcare professionals, advanced clinical practitioners and industry representatives. The stated learning formats are broad enough for MedicMess: symposia, masterclasses, workshops, plenary sessions and e-poster presentations, with a Training Village and exhibition for hands-on practice and exposure to surgical technologies and services. Abstracts are invited for the congress, and ASGBI links congress prizes and BJS-related material, but the 2027 abstract deadline, submission categories and registration fees were not yet visible on the inspected pages. The page FAQ states attendees should receive CPD and a certificate of attendance, but the exact number of points was not published. This is a strong future general surgery conference for trainees because it combines national professional networking, abstract presentation opportunities, surgical education, exhibition and career-stage-tailored learning over three days.
