CAYAS Conference

CAYAS is the Childhood, Adolescent and Young Adult Cancers & Survivorship Conference, now in its 5th year.

The CAYAS Conference is hosted by Childhood Cancer Ireland and CanTeen Ireland and is a wonderful opportunity to hear from those with a lived experience of childhood, adoelscent or young adult cancer, to network with colleagues and to learn about new developments and plans.

Delegates range from clinicians and healthcare providers to parents, researchers, survivors and other people involved in the childhood, adolescent and young adult cancer community, both in Ireland and abroad. 

We are delighted to announce that our 6th Annual CAYAS (Childhood, Adolescent and Young Adult Cancers & Survivorship) Conference will take place on Saturday 3rd October 2026 in Croke Park Stadium.
