QUANT 2026, the International Conference on Quantum Computing Infrastructure and Technologies, is a peer-reviewed conference held in Trento, Italy. The event brings together researchers and industry experts to present innovations in quantum computing, quantum networking, and the infrastructure required to operate quantum systems in practice. The programme spans technical presentations, keynote speakers, and workshops, with extensive networking built in for academics and practitioners working on quantum technologies. QUANT's particular focus on infrastructure distinguishes it within the quantum conference landscape: rather than concentrating on algorithms or theoretical results, it addresses the control systems, networking, cryogenics, and integration work that quantum computing depends on to move from laboratory to deployment. The peer-review process ensures the technical programme reflects genuine current research rather than vendor positioning. Attendees include academic researchers, infrastructure engineers, and industry practitioners building quantum systems. For those working on the engineering substrate of quantum computing, QUANT provides a focused European venue.
QUANT 2026 takes place September 1–4, 2026 in Trento, Italy.
QUANT 2026 is an in-person event.

QUANT convenes in Trento in early September, in the Adige valley where Italy shades into the Alps — Habsburg-tinged piazzas, Renaissance frescoes, and the Dolomites' pale towers under an hour away. September is harvest season in Trentino: mild days, crisp nights, and the region's underrated sparkling wine (Trentodoc) flowing at every enoteca.
Verona's Catullo airport (VRN) is the practical gateway, 90 minutes away by shuttle-plus-train or a direct drive up the A22; Innsbruck and Venice sit two hours out as alternatives, and Milan's airports three. The rail line up the Adige valley makes the final approach easy — Trento's station is ten minutes' walk from the historic centre, and the city itself is comfortably walkable end to end.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on Auto Europe.
EU roaming for Europeans as usual; others should land connected — Italian SIM registration paperwork is not a conference-schedule activity. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Castello del Buonconsiglio. The prince-bishops' castle dominates the old town, its Torre Aquila hiding the Cycle of the Months — a 1400s fresco sequence of medieval life that art historians cross continents for. Two hours covers castle and ramparts; the tower frescoes require a small timed supplement worth every cent. Tickets on Tiqets →
MUSE science museum. Renzo Piano's glass-and-steel science museum steps down like a mountain profile, its galleries running from Alpine glaciers to a tropical greenhouse — and its whale-skeleton atrium is the region's best rainy-afternoon insurance. A natural fit for a quantum crowd; fifteen minutes' walk from the centre. Tickets on Tiqets →
Monte Bondone. Trento's home mountain rises straight from the city — the winding road (or summer bus) reaches alpine meadows at 1,500 m with the Brenta Dolomites filling the western horizon. The Viote botanical garden and an easy ridge walk make a half-day; sunset from the road's upper bends is the local photographer's secret.
What is the best airport for Trento?
Verona (VRN), about 90 minutes by bus-to-station plus train up the valley, or a direct 1h15 drive. Venice and Innsbruck work as alternates; Milan adds an hour but often wins on long-haul fares.
Can I get into the Dolomites without a car?
Partially — buses reach Monte Bondone and the Brenta gateways from Trento's station, and the Trentino Guest Card many hotels issue includes regional transport. For the classic Dolomiti passes, though, a one-day rental is the honest answer.
