Throughout the year numerous IMISCOE events are organised, in the context of research clusters, publication events, PhD training, etc. The most important item on the annual agenda of IMISCOE is the Annual Conference, which has been organised every year since 2004 by one of IMISCOE's member institutes. This year's 15th Annual Conference took place in Barcelona. In 2019 the 16th Annual Conference will be held in Malmö, Sweden: 26 - 28 June, 2019.

Another annual event is the Spring Conference.

Besides the IMISCOE annual conferences, various events are organised throughout the year. At least once a year a smaller academic seminar is organised by one of the IMISCOE member institutes. In addition, numerous events are organised by the various Research Groups and Standing Committees.
