InfraSPREE 2026 is a two-day specialist congress for water management and technical infrastructure, taking place on 18–19 November 2026 at the Schinkelhalle in Potsdam, Germany. The event positions itself as a sector meeting point for professionals, young talent, suppliers and public-sector demand side actors from Berlin and Brandenburg, with a focus on practical exchange and continuing education.
The congress is built around the connection between theory and practice. Its programme covers water supply, wastewater, stormwater management, infrastructure renewal and adaptation to climate change. For 2026, the organisers highlight special topics including water treatment and reuse, PFAS, KARL, and disposal systems. Other recurring themes include the heat and energy transition, water-sensitive urban development, urban water cycles, cybersecurity and resilience, AI, IT and BIM in civil engineering, pipeline construction in times of transformation, pipeline rehabilitation and trenchless construction methods.
InfraSPREE is designed for a broad professional audience. Municipalities, authorities and water associations are addressed alongside engineers, technicians, students, pupils and apprentices. The event format combines specialist presentations, an exhibition and excursions to projects and construction sites. These guided visits are presented as an integral part of the concept, allowing participants to see applications and infrastructure solutions in real settings.
According to the event information, InfraSPREE takes place every second year at venues in Potsdam’s Schiffbauergasse district, including the Schinkelhalle, the T-Werk and the Waschhaus-Arena, connected by the central Schirrhof. The setting underlines the event’s regional anchoring and its link to urban infrastructure, water and climate topics.
Media coverage directly on the event site emphasises the mix of knowledge transfer, networking and hands-on learning, rather than product promotion.
