CanvasCon Europe 2026: 
Future-Ready Education in the Making

Convene Sancroft, St Paul's, London

This year at CanvasCon Europe, we’ll be exploring what it means to be ready for the future of education. Join us for two days full of insightful presenters, unforgettable learning and collaboration with the best community in edtech.

Our 2026 theme - at a glance

CanvasCon Europe 2026 will explore how institutions across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA)
are getting ready to build a world of education that’s ready for tomorrow. This includes…

Readiness for… Learning, Unlearning, and Relearning.

CanvasCon Europe will explore how institutions are discovering the hidden potential of technology in delivering flexibility and recognition to the lifelong learner.

Readiness for… Purpose-Built Generative AI

It wouldn’t be an edtech conference if we didn’t talk about AI - but this time the conversation looks a little different. CanvasCon Europe will spotlight how institutions are creating, partnering with and adapting AI tools so that they’re purpose built for learning outcomes.

Readiness for… Evidence-Based Education

Institutions are under growing pressure to use their wealth of data to inform decision making. We’ll hear how educators are using data to identify what works, iterate on best practices and build a culture of continued teaching improvements.

More to explore than ever before!

Attendee feedback

Don't take our word for it! See what last year's attendees had to say:

I have attended many conferences on Teaching and Learning over the last 25 years - this one was absolutely one of the best.
I would say that networking with other Instructure users was the most crucial part for me. I made personal connections with many people, and I look forward to staying in touch with them in the near future.
Just wanted to say how much I appreciated the positive, vibrant, upbeat atmosphere at the event, from the staff and attendees through all the talks and panels. Although there were, of course, many weighty topics discussed around the challenges facing education, it never felt like 'doom and gloom', and there were so many constructive and encouraging things to take away!
For anyone who works with the educational systems, this conference seems like a must. It is one of the few opportunities to meet so many people who work with the same things.
