The subject of Immersive and 3D Audio represents one of the most important topics in Audio Engineering, Room Acoustics, Automotive, Virtual Augmented Reality, and their applications, ranging from applications in music composition to audio for automotive, including 3D audio for gaming.

The 2025 International Conference on Immersive and 3D Audio (I3DA) will represent the most recent stages in the development of new methodologies and technologies in this field, placing itself as a high-profile international meeting for researchers and other professionals in immersive and 3D audio areas. It will feature three plenary sessions by world-renowned speakers, 10 special sessions, over 100 talks on these topics as well as listening experiences in the form of demos and installations.

The conference will be hosted by the University of Bologna, on September 10-12, 2025, featuring as general Conference Chair Prof. Lamberto Tronchin (University of Bologna, President of AES Italian Section) and Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board Prof. Angelo Farina (University of Parma). The I3DA 2025 proceedings will be submitted to the IEEE for publication and will also be indexed on Scopus and Web of Science.

We look forward to seeing you in Bologna for a full immersion in the latest trends in immersive and 3D audio research!

We are organising the 3rd International Conference on Immersive and 3D Audio Bologna, Piazza Scaravilli, University of Bologna From 10^th to 12^th September, 2025 I3DA will be indexed on IEEE like the previous year, with Special Issues as previously.
