About CEDA Dredging Days

CEDA Dredging Days are organized biennially. Until 2019, they were organised in conjunction with the
Europort Maritime exhibition, and the conference was held at Ahoy Rotterdam in Rotterdam, the Netherlands (until 2003 at the RAI in Amsterdam). In 2021 it was held virtually. In addition to the biennial CEDA Dredging Days, CEDA or its Regional or National Sections organise conferences at a variety of locations.

The next Dredging Days will take place from 27-29 May 2024 in the Postillion Hotel & Convention Centre WTC Rotterdam in Rotterdam, the Netherlands; a modern, central and invigorating location.

CEDA Dredging Days are always well attended by scientists and practitioners representing the whole cross section of CEDA's membership: 

  • Port, coastal and environmental authorities
  • Owners of infrastructure projects
  • Regulators
  • Environmental organisations
  • Conservation bodies
  • Dredging contractors

  • Designers and builders of dredging equipment
  • Designers and builders of ancillary equipment
