Blue Cities 2026

The Blue Cities 2026 will be held in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada on June 9-10, 2026. This year’s conference theme is Water Security for Today and the Next Generation, where attendees will explore how communities can strengthen the sustainability and security of their public water systems in the face of fiscal, economic and infrastructure risk. Sessions will focus on water security and reuse, innovative approaches to biosolids management, housing‑enabling infrastructure, new financial strategies to enhance utility sustainability and emerging international trends in water management and technology, among many other topics. Leading experts, decision‑makers and collaborators from across multiple sectors will be in attendance to network and learn about Canada’s water infrastructure systems, with a curated roster of international speakers selected by Canadian Water Network (CWN) and delegates from across Canada, the United States and Indigenous nations. Come meet EXP’s water team Blue Cities 2026.
