  \nThe 9th Heidelberg International Symposium on High-Energy Gamma-Ray As
 tronomy (γ-2026) will take place from August 31 to September 4 2026\, in
  Heidelberg\, Germany.\nThe Gamma-Ray Symposium has been held since 1994 i
 n Heidelberg (see previous editions in 2000\, 2004\, 2008\, 2012\, 201
 6)\, with the last two symposia taking place in Barcelona (2022) and Milan
  (2024). We are glad to announce that the 2026 edition will again be held 
 in Heidelberg at the Neue Universität in the heart of the historical old 
 town\, hosted by Heidelberg University and MPIK. The format will closely f
 ollow that of previous symposia\, covering all major observational and the
 oretical aspects of the field with a focus on the high-energy (GeV)\, very
 -high-energy (TeV)\, and ultra-high-energy (>100 TeV) intervals of the ele
 ctromagnetic spectrum.\nEmphasis will be placed on recent advances in the 
 field\, in areas including microquasars\, extragalactic jets and transient
 s\, the acceleration of cosmic rays\, PeV sources\, and progress in unders
 tanding diffuse emission. Major progress on new facilities\, upgrades\, in
 strumentation\, and techniques will be reported. Synergies with other wave
 bands and messengers\, including X-rays\, radio\, neutrinos\, and gravitat
 ional waves are expected to be a strong theme of the symposium. The sympos
 ium will also address cosmological issues related to dark matter\, interga
 lactic radiation and magnetic fields\, as well as topics in fundamental ph
 ysics.\nSOC\n \n \n  \n \n                  \n\nhttps://plan.e
