Congrès Âge 3 in Colmar 2026

Congrès Âge 3 is a yearly meeting point for professionals working in French care homes, EHPAD facilities and services for dependent elderly people. The 2026 Colmar edition packs directors, care teams and suppliers of medical and assistive equipment into one focused day. The programme revolves around the theme "Pour une vieillesse heureuse : dépasser les idées reçues", with talks and workshops that challenge common stereotypes about the sector and highlight the value of daily work in care settings. The format is designed for networking among geriatric and social care professionals. The event takes place at the Parc des Expositions de Colmar, part of an annual circuit that also stops in Rouen, Paris, Avignon, Lyon, Nantes, Lille, Clermont-Ferrand and Toulouse. Registration and full conference/workshop details are published on the official site age-3.fr. Visitors travelling from outside the city can stay in Colmar's historic centre or near the exhibition grounds, with easy access across eastern France.
