Every four years WCPT hosts a scientific congress showcasing advancements in physical therapy research, practice and education. This spectacular event brings together more than 3,500 physical therapists.

In 2011 the Royal Dutch Society for Physical Therapy (KNGF) will host the congress in Amsterdam. The venue is the Amsterdam RAI Exhibition and Congress Centre which is well situated and easily accessible from all directions. It has its own train station and is less than 10 minutes from Schiphol Airport by rail.
