EMNLP 2026

EMNLP 2026 is the Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, one of the three main ACL venues alongside ACL and NAACL.

It runs 24 to 29 October 2026 in Budapest, Hungary, with workshops and tutorials bracketing the main conference days.

The programme emphasises empirical and experimental NLP work, covering language model behaviour, evaluation methodology, multilinguality, information extraction and interpretability.

It is a primary publication target for NLP researchers and draws heavy recruiting interest from industrial labs.
