==Why ?==
==CANCELLED DUE TO CORONA==
The International Heraldry Day was established on June 10 around 5 years ago and has grown in interest ever since. To celebrate the day several (informal) and on-line activities have taken place during the years.


Now the time has come to formalise the day even more by holding an international mini congress on heraldry.
May be organised in autumn, but no decision has been made yet.
 
Current international heraldic congresses take several days and are organised biannually, often in combination with genealogy. Although well organised, they are also very costly for many participants. The aim of the IHD congresses are that they are more informal and accessible for anybody (no membership necessary), internationally oriented and cheap. A very good way to informally network among other heraldic enthousiasts.
 
What we do not offer as compared to the larger congresses : no fancy opening, no heraldic location, no lunch or dinners and no written published proceedings.
 
What we do offer is high quality heraldic lectures in a well equipped room at a university, coffee and tea. And plenty of time to meet and socialise on an heraldic market.
 
The first of these congresses will be held on June 12, 2020. Yes, 2 days after the IHD, but for travel puproses the 12th would be a more suitable day.
 
The idea is that similar congresses will be held worldwide at different locations worldwide.
