The thirteenth Liquid Matter Conference will take place in Barcelona, Spain, in 2027. Previous conferences were held in Lyon (1990), Firenze (1993), Norwich (1996), Grenada (1999), Konstanz (2002), Utrecht (2005), Lund (2008), Vienna (2011), Lisbon (2014), Ljubljana (2017), virtual (2021) and Mainz (2024). This series of meetings is organized by the Liquids Section of the Condensed Matter Division of the European Physical Society.

The aim of the conference is to bring together scientists working on the liquid state of matter, which today extends to complex fluids, as well as to soft and active matter. This rapidly growing field includes the physics, chemistry, biology, and chemical engineering of liquid matter as well as various applied research areas in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and manufacturing industries.

The conference will consist of plenary lectures, topical symposia with keynote lectures and contributed oral presentations, and poster sessions. The plenary lectures will be streamed. All speakers will be on site.
