2026 NAFB Convention » Nov. 18–20 » Kansas City
Join Us!
Tune In to What's Next
The future of agriculture is evolving. The way we communicate is evolving even faster.
Join hundreds of farm broadcasters, ag communicators, marketers, and industry leaders at the National Association of Farm Broadcasting (NAFB) Convention as we Tune In to What's Next. The 2026 Convention will be November 18–20, at the Westin Crown Center in Kansas City. The agenda will be released soon and early-bird registration and the hotel block will open on August 3.
For more than 80 years, NAFB has brought together the voices and visionaries who inform, educate, and connect agriculture. This year's Convention continues that tradition by focusing on the future—helping attendees tune into what's next in agriculture, what's next in farm broadcasting, and what's next in agricultural communications.
The NAFB Convention is where those conversations begin. Join us as we explore new ideas, strengthen valuable relationships, and discover the opportunities that will shape the future of our industry. And NAFB's signature Trade Talk event connects leading farm broadcasters with the ag companies and associations that are driving that future.
