Overview

Imagine the possibilities as more than 1,200 fair CEOs, directors, staff and fair-related professionals, representing more than 150 fairs, festivals and special events from the western United States and Canada gather in one convenient location for four action-packed days of education, networking and fun at the 89th annual WFA Convention and Trade Show!
  • Low Fees--Concluding the year-long celebration of the 200th anniversary of fairs, Western Fairs Association has lowered registration to $200 per person--the lowest registration fee in 20 years!
  • New Dates--Convention is two weeks earlier this year, which means earlier registration and booking deadlines. Registration and hotel reservations must be made by December 15 to guarantee the low rates.
  • Location, Location, Location--Sunny Southern California welcomes Western Fairs Association back to the Anaheim Marriott with a $99 room rate. Discounted Disneyland packages will make it easy to extend Convention into a family vacation.
  • Networking-Reconnect with your fair family during the off-season. Spend time catching up with friends and talk shop with colleagues. With receptions, general sessions, Trade Show and Showcase, it’s easy build those relationships in a relaxed, fun-filled atmosphere.
  • Education- Now more than ever, it is critical that you have the tools you need to plan for the future. From mobile marketing and fundraising to fair board director essentials to restructuring for the future, the Professional Development Committee has developed a full program of cutting-edge topics and engaging speakers.
