The World Leisure Congress 2025 will be held in Breda, The Netherlands from 25-28 August 2025. Make sure you submit your abstract on time!
The WL Congress brings together leisure professionals from academia, industry, and government to discuss, share, and address the latest issues in the domain of leisure in its broadest sense, encompassing tourism, sport, recreation, hospitality, media, and events.
Leisure is an ever-stronger determinant of both individual and collective wellbeing. Thinking strategically about leisure as a catalyst for promoting wellbeing and inducing increased social and ecological sustainability is what binds together academics, governments, and industry.
The overarching theme of the Congress is ‘Leisure for a Better Society’. This theme refers to the central position that leisure takes in the lives of people worldwide.
