2026 ICMA Annual Conference

October 17-21, 2026

Since 1914, the International City/County Management Association (ICMA) Annual Conference has been the premier gathering for local government management professionals. It’s where they share and discover new ideas, strategies, resources, and solutions for managing local governments in today’s complex environment.

With four and a half days of learning, inspiration, and connection, attendees leave equipped with the tools and support they need to make their communities better places to live, work, and play. No other local government management conference offers the same level of programming, exhibitors, or networking opportunities that the ICMA conference provides.
