The International Congress of Maritime Museums (ICMM) is pleased to announce registration for the next biennial ICMM Congress, which will be held from 15–21 September 2024 in the ‘low land’ countries of the Netherlands and Belgium, is now open.

ICMM holds a Congress every two years. Each Congress is hosted by an ICMM member who has won a bid to hold the event. The aim is to hold Congresses in different countries and on different continents so that delegates have the opportunity to see how other maritime museums operate around the world. Delegates attending ICMM Congresses come from many countries and represent a wide cross section of maritime museums as well as those with an interest in maritime heritage and history.

The 2024 Congress has been organised in collaboration with four host museums:
Het Scheepvaartmuseum (National Maritime Museum) – Amsterdam, Netherlands
Maritiem Museum Rotterdam – Rotterdam, Netherlands
Museum aan de Stroom (MAS) – Antwerp, Belgium
Zuiderzee Museum – Enkhuizen, Netherlands

Registration for the conference is now. If you would like to be placed on the waiting list please send an email to ICMM2024@hetscheepvaartmuseum.nl.
