The 24th World Dredging Congress & Exhibition (WODCON XXIV) - Save the Date
The World Organization of Dredging Associations (WODA) is thrilled to announce the 24th World Dredging Congress & Exhibition (WODCON XXIV) will be hosted by the Western Dredging Association (WEDA) and held at the picturesque Hilton San Diego Bayfront Hotel from June 23-27 2025.
The World Dredging Congress has become the most important and anticipated event for dredging professionals worldwide. WODCONs are the only global event dedicated exclusively to dredging and maritime construction and provide a unique platform for researchers and practitioners from industry, academia, and governments to meet and discuss dredging.
