Conference registration is required for all presenters and attendees. Registration includes refreshments (coffee and snacks), lunches, and a wine reception, as well as admission to all performances hosted at Queen Mary University of London and Whitechapel Gallery. All conference fees include one year of TaPRA membership (£35 standard / £17 concession), beginning on 2 September 2026 and running until the 2027 annual conference.
TaPRA is especially committed to supporting students, as well as unaffiliated researchers and artists. In addition to providing a limited number of bursaries, concession rates are available for these colleagues. In an effort to keep costs manageable, TaPRA has frozen delegate rates this year and is offering discounted on-campus accommodation.
Early booking is strongly recommended and will assist with planning. Discounted Early Bird rates are available until 15 June.
Please note: only non‑commercial debit and credit cards are accepted; purchasing cards are excluded. If you have difficulties booking, contact finance-eshop@qmul.ac.uk.
