Inter-Noise 2024 - the largest ever acoustics conference

The French Society of Acoustics held the 53rd Inter-Noise conference in Nantes between 25-29th August 2024. This was the largest Inter-Noise with 1874 delegates attending the little hybrid meeting with 1169 papers presented with 22.5% of those from Early Careers paying significantly less to attend.. The size of the Inter-Noise meeting was 50% larger than typical.. Professor Stephen Dance sat on the I-INCE committee which selected this venue as a conference which turned out to be a great decision! The welcome address involved music and comedy to demonstrate physical principles. Let's hope Brazil 2025 can continue the great progress!
