The Flavor Physics and CP Violation (FPCP) conferences are intended for the exchange of new ideas, for presentation of the latest experimental and theoretical results in the areas included in the conference title, and for discussions about future projects in the field. The conference is open to all experimental and theoretical physicists interested in the field.This conference series results from the merging of the Heavy Flavor Physics Conference and the International Conference on B Physics and CP Violation in 2002.

The 2026 edition will be held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef (PBH). Besides invited plenary sessions there will be parallel sessions - the corresponding abstract submission is open. The conference will start on Monday 18th May at 8:30 in the morning and end on Friday 22nd May at noon. Check-in and overnight stay at PBH are available from Sunday.
Bad Honnef lies on the river Rhine, around 15 km south of Bonn. It was the home of the first German chancellor Konrad Adenauer (more precisely the neighbouring village Rhöndorf) and it lies on the foot of the hills of the Siebengebirge. The area around Bad Honnef is also famous for its wine production, in particular white wines like Riesling.
The conference fee includes participation in the full scientific program, access to the social program, the conference dinner, and lunch and coffee breaks on all conference days. For the social program on Wednesday afternoon we offer 3 choices: i) a bus trip to the impressive radio telescope in Effelsberg. ii) a hike into the neighbouring mountains of the Siebengebirge including a visit of the scenic castle Schloss Drachenburg iii) a treasure hunt in Bonn (the former capital of Germany), visiting some of the cultural highlights there, including at least one local pub. After the social program there is the opportunity to visit one of the local wine cellars in Rhöndorf. The conference dinner will take place on Thursday evening on board of a Rhine cruise ship.
Accommodation costs are not included in the conference fee and must be paid on-site. A limited number of single rooms is available at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef (PBH), the conference venue. After PBH is fully booked, participants will be assigned to the nearby Hotel the YARD Bad Honnef.
