NMBS Conference
Alicante 2026

Thursday 11th – Sunday 14th June 2026

Destination

The Costa Blanca, located along the southeastern coast of Spain in the province of Alicante, is famed for its stunning white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and charming coastal towns.

Stretching over 200 kilometres, this sun-drenched region offers a diverse landscape that includes dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, bustling seaside resorts, and traditional Spanish villages.

Costa Blanca offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and year-round sunshine, making it an ideal destination for all types of travellers. With its pristine beaches, crystal-clear Mediterranean waters, and picturesque coastal towns, the region provides endless opportunities for relaxation and outdoor adventure.

Beyond the beaches, the Costa Blanca boasts rugged mountains, historic castles, and vibrant local markets, while its cuisine highlights fresh seafood, rice dishes like paella, and excellent regional wines.

The Costa Blanca is definitely the closest thing to paradise, and we hope to see you here too for the NMBS 2026 conference.
