The RCGP Annual Conference is the must attend event of the year for GPs and practice team colleagues, showcasing the latest clinical and policy developments across the UK and bringing together an impressive range of national and international speakers.
The past year has made us all realise and appreciate the opportunity to take time out to reflect, recharge and share our experiences. But we’ve really missed socialising and networking in person with peers, colleagues and friends. We look forward to welcoming you to our Annual Conference in Liverpool, 14-15 October 2021 to do just that!
Register now for October 2021
After such a long period without face-to-face interaction, the return of our Annual Conference is a fantastic opportunity to socialise and network in person with peers, colleagues and friends. The conference will be COVID-safe as we adhere to the latest government advice. As such, there will be strictly limited capacity so early booking is strongly advised.
Register before 1 June to save up to £96.

Upcoming events
22 October 2020
In the first major event for primary care in 2020, this online event allows members to come together to explore what the future holds for general practice as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. Join your fellow members for a day of insightful discussions to explore:
- how general practice will emerge from the pandemic
- what the future holds for you as a GP
- practical tips on how you can best manage from both a personal and professional perspective.
This event is FREE for RCGP members.
11-12 February 2021
This online conference provides RCGP members and other primary healthcare professionals an opportunity to join together to understand how the future of general practice will impact on everyday practice and how to adapt. It will build on our Building the future of general practice event (22 October 2020) where over 2,000 members explore how general practice will be structured as it emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic.
