25th International Water Mist Conference in Prague

The 25th International Water Mist Conference (#IWMC2026) will take place in Prague, Czech Republic, on 7th and 8th October 2026.

Following the successful Manchester conference, the International Water Mist Association (IWMA) is once again introducing a fresh element to the format. The regular 1.5-day conference programme will be complemented by a dedicated half-day training workshop focusing on the design and effective utilisation of water mist systems. 

With this initiative, IWMA continues to invest in educating the fire protection industry on how to apply water mist technology more efficiently and confidently in practice. CPD certificates will be issued to workshop participants. “Prague is more than a conference,” says Max Lakkonen, President of IWMA. “It is where the global water mist community comes together to share knowledge, challenge ideas, shape the future of fire protection – and enjoy doing it together.” 

As always, the Ragnar Wighus Award will be presented. In 2026, it will honour the author of the best master thesis dedicated to smaller droplets. The deadline for submitting synopses has been extended to is 31st May.

The conference webpage is now active, and the ticket shop is open. The organizer of the conference, the International Water Mist Association (IWMA), offers special prices until 15th August.
