The 2026 International Workshop on Future Linear Colliders

The 2026 International Workshop on Future Linear Colliders (LCWS2026) continues the established series devoted to the study of the physics, detectors, and accelerator technologies for high-energy electron–positron colliders. Linear colliders are one of the most compelling options for a next-generation Higgs factory, complementary to circular collider proposals. They offer a unique and flexible path toward higher centre-of-mass energies and luminosities, enabling a long-term exploration of the electroweak scale and beyond. At the same time, many key technologies and physics goals are shared across linear and circular approaches, opening important opportunities for synergy and collaboration wi
