CACEE 2026 will be hosted at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) in Mumbai. Situated on a lush, seaside campus overlooking the Arabian Sea, TIFR stands as one of India’s oldest and most premier institutions for advanced scientific research, offering an inspiring environment for academic exchange.
As India’s financial and cultural capital, Mumbai serves as the country’s primary international gateway, offering seamless global flight connectivity for visiting researchers. Furthermore, December is universally considered the best time to visit the city. The post-monsoon climate brings mild temperatures, clear skies, and cool sea breezes, making it the perfect season to explore Mumbai's rich architecture, historic landmarks, and vibrant culinary scene after conference hours.
