The biggest AI conferences of 2027 run from February in Montreal to November in Singapore, from AAAI, ICLR, ICML and CVPR to focused events such as CVC, Computing Conference and IntelliSys, covering core machine learning, vision, robotics, language and applied AI. Here they are by area, with dates, cities and what each is best for. Dates were checked in November 2026, so confirm them on the official page before you plan travel.
Key Takeaways
The 2027 calendar starts with AAAI-27 (16 to 23 February, Montreal) and ends with IEEE CAI 2027 (30 November to 2 December, Singapore).
Flagships give the widest audience. Focused conferences such as CVC (April), Computing Conference (July) and IntelliSys (September) give fit and a smaller room.
Each conference lists its current submission window on its own call for papers page.

How to Choose Between Flagship and Focused AI Conferences
Flagships such as AAAI, ICLR, ICML and IJCAI offer the largest audiences and long review cycles. Focused conferences such as IntelliSys, Computing Conference and CVC draw a narrower audience and suit applied work, early-stage ideas and regional research groups.
State-of-the-art results on standard benchmarks: aim at a flagship.
An application, a system or a new dataset: consider a focused conference or a workshop track.
A travel budget to plan: see our guide to conference travel grants.
