The organisers expect around 800 healthcare professionals. In-person tickets include the Thursday networking event, workshops and symposia.
Two abstract routes are open: general posters and the Early Investigator Award. Selected applicants present orally; the top five general posters are recognised in a British Journal of Cardiology publication.
Trainees have a dedicated member ticket category, online access, workshops and masterclasses. Early-career researchers can enter the EIA if eligible, while the general poster route accepts research and examples of good clinical practice.

The British Society for Heart Failure Annual Meeting 2026 is a two-day hybrid national meeting for UK healthcare professionals working in heart failure. It takes place on 19–20 November at the QEII Centre in London and is expected to bring together around 800 consultants, nurses, GPs, physiologists, allied health professionals and researchers. The theme is “Inequalities: The Human Cost”, with sessions spanning heart failure epidemiology and guidance, access to advanced care, services across the four UK nations, research and clinical trials, early diagnosis, patient experience, under-recognised populations and socioeconomic inequalities.
Abstract submissions close at 23:59 on Sunday 6 September 2026. The general poster route accepts heart-failure research and examples of good clinical practice in basic or translational science, clinical research, service delivery from diagnosis to management, and population health. Abstracts must be 350–500 words and accepted posters must use Aims, Methods, Results and Conclusion headings. Posters are displayed online as PDFs and in person at A0 portrait size; presenting authors must buy an in-person ticket. The five highest-ranked posters give an oral moderated-poster presentation, receive certificates and are recognised in a British Journal of Cardiology publication.
The Early Investigator Award is open to BSH members other than previous winners. Medically qualified applicants must not hold a substantive or honorary consultant post, the entrant must be first author, and BSH particularly encourages researchers within three years of starting an academic career. EIA abstracts are limited to 500 words excluding specified front matter and references, use double spacing and 12-point monochrome text, and may contain one figure or table. Required sections include Background, Purpose, Methods, Results, Conclusion and conflicts of interest, plus a contribution statement under 100 words. The top three give seven-minute presentations.
Registration is open, with hybrid access and recordings for three months. Published prices range from £150 online for trainee/AHP/nurse members to £468 for in-person consultant/GP non-members. The event is approved for 10 external Category 1 CPD credits. The QEII Centre is close to St James’s Park and Westminster stations.
