Weather
December falls in Trujillo's dry coastal summer: warm days, very little rainfall, and mild evenings. Light layers plus sun protection are enough; the weather site capture for the month could not load, so treat the temperature band as approximate and check the forecast closer to 10-12 December 2026.

Check temperatures and pack accordingly

Cultural notes
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Conference language and etiquette
IEEE Peru conventions run mainly in Spanish, with English common in papers, slides and international keynotes. Greetings are formal on first meeting, and a handshake with a short introduction of your institution works well with academics and chapter officers.
Currency and payments
Peru uses the sol (PEN). Hotels, larger restaurants and the UPAO area accept cards, but taxis, market stalls and smaller venues run on cash. Carry small notes and coins, and tell your bank you are travelling so cards are not blocked.
Tipping and daily costs
A 10 percent tip is customary in sit-down restaurants and is sometimes already added to the bill. Taxi fares are agreed before the ride when booked off-app, so confirm the amount at the curb rather than at the destination.
Local food worth planning around
Trujillo is a serious food city: ceviche with chicha morada, shambar on Mondays and the northern-style cabrito are local staples. Lunch is the main meal and the menú del día format is fast and inexpensive, which suits a conference schedule with short breaks.
Archaeology around the sessions
Chan Chan, the largest adobe city of the pre-Columbian world, sits on the edge of Trujillo and pairs naturally with the Moche pyramids of Huaca del Sol y la Luna and the Huaca de la Luna museum. Both are half-day visits and best done with a guide.
Huanchaco and the coast
The fishing village of Huanchaco, with its reed caballitos de totora boats and surf break, is a short ride from the centre and an easy evening break from conference rooms. December weather is dry and warm, which makes the seafront usable after sessions.
Getting around safely
Use app-based ride-hailing or radio taxis rather than hailing on the street at night, and keep phones and laptops out of view in busy market areas. Central Trujillo around the Plaza de Armas is walkable during the day, but the UPAO campus is better reached by taxi.
Sun, sea breeze and December
Trujillo sits on the dry coastal strip, so December days are sunny and rain is rare. Sun protection matters even on overcast mornings, and the evening sea breeze justifies a light jacket for outdoor dinners.
Time zone and connectivity
Peru runs on Peru Time (PET), UTC-5 year-round, with no daylight saving shift. Mobile data is widely available in Trujillo, but campus Wi-Fi can be congested during session breaks, so download papers and maps in advance.
Registration and campus arrivals
Confirm your INTERCON 2026 registration and UPAO campus access with the organiser before travelling, and arrive early on the first conference day for check-in and orientation at the campus.

Flights
Captured Google Flights results for 10 December 2026 confirm Trujillo (TRU) as the arrival airport. New York JFK itineraries on Delta and LATAM ran 12h35m to 23h27m with connections at Miami (MIA) and Lima (LIM); the fastest option was a 12h35m LATAM routing with a 3h15m stop in Lima. Tokyo NRT and London LHR searches returned no usable through-itineraries, so route those origins via Lima or a US hub and price the LIM-TRU leg separately. Book the international and domestic legs in one itinerary where possible so a missed connection is protected, and allow at least three hours at Jorge Chavez between an intercontinental arrival and a domestic departure. December is a heavy travel month in Peru ahead of the holidays, so reserve the Lima-Trujillo sector early and re-check schedule changes in the week before departure. Fares were not captured in usable form; confirm live prices with the airline or your booking channel before purchase.
Transport
Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

Ride-hail: Ride-hailing apps are commonly used in Trujillo; confirm local availability before travel.
Public transit: Check local bus/metro options for routes to Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego (UPAO).
Parking: On-site parking is available at Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego (UPAO); confirm daily rates and hall access on the organiser or venue site.
Weather
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: December 2026
Temperature: Approx. 17-26 C (63-79 F) in December: warm, dry days near 24-26 C, mild evenings around 17-18 C, very little rainfall and a coastal breeze after sunset. Bring light layers and sun protection; the weather capture for the month did not load, so treat the band as approximate and check the forecast closer to 10-12 December 2026.
Seasonality: Trujillo sits on Peru's northern desert coast, so December is essentially rain-free; any seasonal moisture risk is negligible compared with the Andean highlands. Expect bright sun and coastal haze rather than rain interruptions to conference days.

FAQs & glossary
Answers
Frequently asked
Glossary
- IEEE
- The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, the professional body behind INTERCON. Its Peru Section organises the convention, and its student branches, technical chapters and affinity groups supply much of the programme and audience.
- INTERCON
- The IEEE Peru Section's international convention, held in Trujillo from 10 to 12 December 2026 at Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego (UPAO). It combines a technical conference with the national student-branch meeting and industry participation.
- RNR (Reunión Nacional de Ramas)
- The national meeting of IEEE student branches that runs alongside INTERCON. The captured registration schedule lists a dedicated IEEE RNR participant rate, so student delegates should select the RNR category when they register.
- IEEE Region 9
- The IEEE region covering Latin America and the Caribbean. Peru sits inside Region 9, which is why INTERCON draws delegations and reviewers from neighbouring Sections such as Colombia, Ecuador, Chile and Argentina.
- Student Branch
- A university-level IEEE chapter, such as the branch hosted at UPAO. Branches send delegations to INTERCON, present project work and compete in student activities tied to the RNR.
- Technical Chapter / Society Chapter
- A discipline-focused unit of an IEEE Section, for example Computer, Communications, Power & Energy or Robotics and Automation chapters. Chapters typically organise the paper sessions and reviewer pool for a convention like INTERCON.
- WIE (Women in Engineering)
- An IEEE affinity group that promotes women in technical careers. WIE panels and networking sessions are a standard part of IEEE Peru conventions and often appear in the student and professional track.
- SIGHT (Special Interest Group on Humanitarian Technology)
- An IEEE group that applies engineering to community problems. SIGHT projects are a recurring fit for Peruvian student branches because they combine social impact with applied engineering work.
- Keynote
- An invited plenary talk that opens a day or a track and sets the technical theme. Keynotes are usually given by senior academics, IEEE volunteers or industry engineers and are open to all registered delegates.
- Paper track / technical session
- A block of timed presentations of peer-reviewed work grouped by theme. Authors present accepted papers and take questions from the audience and session chair.
- Poster session
- A stand-based format where authors present a printed or digital poster and discuss results one to one. It is the usual route for early-stage student research and undergraduate thesis work.
- Proceedings
- The collected record of accepted papers, typically distributed digitally with an ISBN or IEEE Xplore indexing. Confirm the indexing and copyright route for your paper with the technical programme chair.
- Peer review
- The evaluation process in which independent reviewers score submitted papers on originality, method and relevance before acceptance. Review comments are normally returned to authors ahead of a camera-ready deadline.
- Camera-ready
- The final, formatted version of an accepted paper that the author submits after incorporating reviewer comments. It is the version that goes into the proceedings.
- Badge and accreditation
- The printed or digital credential issued at the registration desk that grants access to sessions and the venue. Bring photo identification that matches the name on your registration.
