Highland Archaeology Conference 2026

Welcome to the new home of HAF. Here you will find details of this year's HAF Conference 2026.

Our annual Highland Archaeology conference highlights recent work on the archaeology and heritage of the Highlands from a diverse range of local, regional and national organisations. It is organised by The Highland Council’s Historic Environment Team with the aim of promoting the archaeology of the Highlands to enable communities, professionals and researchers to participate in and benefit from our shared heritage.

The 2026 HAF conference was held on 10th-11th October at what has become our home venue at the Highland Council Chamber in Inverness. Please see the 2026 programme. Full details of the event will follow soon!

Forming an important part of the conference, we also had groups displaying information about their projects and organisations as well as lunchtime poster sessions. Attending were museums, heritage groups, archaeological units and some national organisations, providing a chance to meet and chat with people involved in Highland heritage. 

We are keen to get as much feedback as possible from both in-person and online attendees. Please scan the relevant QR code or click on the online survey form below for your attendance method.
