The 31st Congress of the EAHP, known as the EAHP Congress 2027, is the congress of the European Association of Hospital Pharmacists (EAHP), held 17 to 19 March 2027 at the Austria Center Vienna, with onsite pre-registration on Tuesday 16 March. EAHP represents more than 30,000 hospital pharmacists across 37 member countries, calling the congress "the largest Congress in Europe, and the second largest Congress in the world for hospital pharmacists".
The congress runs three main days, Wednesday 17 to Friday 19 March 2027, with onsite pre-registration on Tuesday 16 March, 12:00 to 17:00. Wednesday opens with registration from 07:00, the Opening Ceremony and Keynote 1 at 08:30, and the exhibition open 10:15 to 20:00, with a Get-together reception from 18:30 to 19:30. Thursday is a full congress day, exhibition 08:00 to 17:00. Friday is shortest: an optional charity Fun Run 07:00 to 08:00, a half-day exhibition 09:00 to 12:00, and the Closing Ceremony and Keynote 3 ending at 13:00, per the official programme.
Sessions run as Scientific Abstract and Good Practice Initiative (GPI) talks, a Young Professionals Synergy Session, Synergy and Industry Satellites, and 20+ seminars, interactive sessions and workshops, plus Poster Walks at coffee breaks and lunch. EAHP, an ACPE-accredited continuing-education provider, has the 2027 congress accredited by the European Council for Pharmacy Education Accreditation (ECPhA), per the organiser's own page.
Standard registration for the EAHP Congress 2027 costs €578 plus 10% Austrian VAT at the current rate, to 30 November 2026, rising to €708 plus VAT to 31 January 2027, then €810 plus VAT until the congress, per the organiser's registration page. One-day fees are €394 plus VAT for Wednesday or Thursday, and €200 plus VAT for Friday. Reduced flat rates apply for students (€200), young professionals (€350) and hospital pharmacy specialisation resident students (€350), all plus VAT, with proof of status.
Full registration covers all sessions, the opening reception, exhibition, lunch on Wednesday and Thursday, and coffee breaks; accommodation is separate. Online registration closes 11 March 2027, 18:00 CET, and cancellations before 31 December 2026 are refunded, less €100 plus VAT; none after. Prices as of 30 September 2026.

Habyt Vienna's coworking space is free for all guests, so the last check of your poster and slides can wait until you are in Vienna. The poster PDF is due with EAHP by 26 February 2027, so the heavy work is done at home and you can travel light. Arrive on Tuesday 16 March, when onsite pre-registration runs 12:00 to 17:00, use the coworking space that evening for final changes, and hang the poster on Wednesday 17 March between 10:15 and 17:00.
Build in the deadline: registrations paid by bank transfer must reach EAHP by 7 March 2027. Vienna in mid-March runs cool, so pack layers rather than one heavy coat (see the historical averages below); for general visitor information, see the Vienna Tourist Board.
Start Thursday, the full middle day, with the free light breakfast at Habyt Vienna before the exhibition opens at 08:00, per the official programme. Wednesday is the longest day: registration from 07:00, the Opening Ceremony and Keynote 1 at 08:30, and an exhibition that stays open until 20:00, so a light breakfast beats an empty stomach before a full day between session halls, the poster and exhibition area, and the coffee-break zones.
Habyt Vienna's 24/7 reception means you can stay for the full Wednesday Get-together reception, 18:30 to 19:30, without watching the clock. Friday is short: an optional Fun Run from 07:00 to 08:00, then a half-day of sessions closing with the Closing Ceremony and Keynote 3 by 13:00.
Habyt Vienna is 10 minutes on foot from Praterstern, a hub for S-Bahn, U1 and U2 served by Wiener Linien; tram O also runs along Bruno-Marek-Allee. From Praterstern, the U1 reaches Kaisermühlen-VIC in 3 stops (about 4 minutes, no change), then a 7-minute walk to the entrance. From Vienna's Hauptbahnhof, the U1 reaches Kaisermühlen-VIC in 20 minutes without changing; Stephansplatz is 7 minutes away by U1, per the organiser's venue page.
The Austria Center Vienna has its own on-site garage with ample private parking, plus 18 electric-vehicle charging stations, off the A22 motorway (venue information). Habyt Vienna offers paid parking on site.
Historical average for 17 to 19 March (2016 to 2025): 10.2°C high, 0.8°C low, rain on 5 of 30 days checked (Open-Meteo historical data). Pack layers, including a warm one for the evening: the average low sits just above freezing, with a hard frost recorded one year on these dates.
The free coworking space and lounge give you a place to finish a poster or review slides before sessions start, and every studio has its own fully equipped kitchen. The 24/7 reception means a late return from the Wednesday Get-together reception is never a problem, and the free light breakfast is a simple start to a long day at the Austria Center Vienna. Choose the Standard Studio for a solo stay or the Superior Apartment if you want more space; see what past guests say on the Habyt Vienna reviews page.
