I may be getting in early with this one, but that is exactly how strongly I feel about it. If you are a cluster headache patient, a caregiver, or anyone affected by this condition, I want you to start thinking about the 2026 Clusterbusters Conference right now. Lock it in your diary. Lay down your plans. You will not regret it.
These conferences are genuinely life-changing. I say that without any exaggeration.
What Makes This Conference Worth Attending
The Clusterbusters conference is one of the few places in the world where you will be completely surrounded by people who truly understand what cluster headache is. Fellow patients, caregivers, researchers, and specialist doctors all gather in the same place, united by a shared mission to advance care and support for our community.
You will make connections that last a lifetime. You will hear directly from the clinicians and researchers who are doing the most important work in cluster headache. You will learn about emerging treatments and research findings that you may not find anywhere else. And perhaps most powerfully, you will simply be in the company of people who get it. There is nothing quite like that feeling.
Conference Details
Organisation: Clusterbusters
Dates: Thursday 8 October 2026 to Sunday 11 October 2026
Location: Embassy Suites by Hilton, Chicago O'Hare, Rosemont, Illinois
Full registration details and the official programme will be published on the Clusterbusters website once they are announced. The conference hotel room block fills fast, so I strongly recommend booking early once accommodation details go live.
Why Clusterbusters Deserves Your Support
Clusterbusters does extraordinary work across patient advocacy, peer support, education, research funding and awareness. They bring patients, clinicians and researchers together in a way that genuinely moves the needle for our community. I have enormous respect for what they do and the people behind it. They are truly amazing.
A Personal Word from Me
I had the privilege of speaking at last year's conference and travelled a very long way to be there. It was one of the most meaningful experiences I have had as a patient advocate.
The thing that stood out most was the people. Warriors from all over the United States and beyond, so many accents and backgrounds, all so warm and welcoming. I made so many new friends. The highlight of highlights was finally meeting people in person that I had been friends with online for nearly ten years. People I count as genuine close friends. You know who you are.
I learned a great deal and came away with even more respect for the doctors and researchers working in this space. It was a privilege to meet all of you. Thank you for the work you do. I cannot wait to be back in 2026.
If you would like to watch the Vitamin D3 Regimen presentation I gave at the conference, you can find it here on YouTube.
Lock it in. Commit to it. Start planning for Clusterbusters 2026 today.
