The Spanish-Portuguese Relativity Meetings (EREPs) are a long-standing scientific tradition that began in 1977. Since then, they have served as a key forum for the Portuguese and Spanish communities working in General Relativity and Gravitation, promoting collaboration and the exchange of ideas across a broad range of topics. Organized annually by different research groups from both countries, EREPs have become the most prominent conference on gravitation and relativity in the Iberian Peninsula.
 
The EREP 2026 edition will take place in Murcia, Spain, from May 25th to 29th, 2026. We warmly invite you to join us for a week of stimulating scientific discussions in a vibrant and sunny Mediterranean setting. As in previous editions, EREP 2026 will bring together researchers from across the Iberian Peninsula and beyond, offering a dynamic program in a friendly and collaborative atmosphere.
 
The conference will be held on-site at the Paraninfo de la Universidad de Murcia, which is located at the city center and 40 km far from the Mediterranean Sea.
