As an academic, in order to promote your own work and to learn about the work being done by others in your field, it's essential that you attend conferences. This is especially true of disciplines like history which can be performed individually rather than as part of a research group. You need contact with other researchers in order to motivate yourself and to understand the broader context of debates currently being held in your field.

However, there is only a limited amount of time that you have available for travelling to and attending conferences, so you need to pick the conferences that you will attend carefully. For practical and budget reasons, it is easier to attend a conference that is nearby to your location. So below we're listing 5 of the top conferences in history that are being held in Europe in 2018.
