The 28th Annual General Meeting of ICANN (ICANN87) is scheduled to take place from 17 to 22 October 2026 in Muscat, Oman. The meeting will focus on internet governance, policy development, and the technical coordination of the global Domain Name System (DNS).

The event is organised by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the body responsible for coordinating the global DNS, IP address allocation, and other key internet identifiers. ICANN Annual General Meetings are among its principal public events and typically include policy discussions, technical sessions, constituency meetings, and public forums.

ICANN87 is expected to convene a wide range of stakeholders, including government representatives, technical experts, civil society organisations, private sector actors, and members of the academic community. Discussions generally address topics such as DNS policy development, internet security and stability, accountability frameworks, and the ongoing evolution of the multistakeholder model of internet governance.

Further details, including the meeting agenda and participation information, are available on ICANN’s official meetings calendar.
