The Complete Guide to the Update in medicine - Cardiff 2026

Update in medicine - Cardiff 2026 is a one-day, face-to-face RCP Update in medicine meeting for generalist physicians and trainees. The RCP page states that the event includes refreshments and lunch, a cross-specialty programme, Q&A with leading physicians, and networking with senior RCP officers and peers. It is CPD accredited for 6 credits and does not provide online access. Visible fee tiers include £285 for standard non-member consultant/SAS or allied health professional bookings, £125 for RCP subscribing consultant/SAS members, £75 for subscribing resident doctors, FY doctors and medical students, and £185 for standard non-member resident doctor / student bookings. No abstract submission or publication route was advertised on the page, so this is best treated as a regional clinical update and networking conference rather than a research-presentation meeting. Cardiff Marriott Hotel is in the city centre, around 5 minutes' walk from Cardiff Central station. Onsite parking is available at a discounted rate if delegates validate at reception; nearby alternatives include John Lewis and St David's II car parks.
