Still Time to Register for the 2026 LeadingAge Annual Meeting in Philadelphia

The 2026 LeadingAge Annual Meeting is just over a week away, and there is still time to register. From Oct. 25-28, more than 6,000 aging services professionals are expected to gather at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia for four days of education, networking and new approaches to care and services. For LeadingAge Ohio members, the national meeting offers an opportunity to learn from nonprofit providers across the country, bring new ideas back to their organizations and spend time with colleagues who share their commitment to mission-driven care.

The education program features more than 140 sessions addressing technology and artificial intelligence, workforce challenges, leadership, quality improvement and operational priorities. Keynote speakers include Ethan Mollick, who will discuss artificial intelligence, and Emma Heming Willis, who will share her experiences as a family caregiver. Beyond the sessions, the E2 Experience Expo offers hands-on demonstrations, technology solutions and opportunities to meet potential partners. This year's expo features Philadelphia-inspired gathering spaces, live interviews at LeadingAge LIVE, short presentations at the Brain Bar and research discussions in the Ageing Commons.

LeadingAge Ohio members can also start the week with State Night Out on Sunday, Oct. 25, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at SPIN Philadelphia. Hosted by LeadingAge Ohio, LeadingAge Indiana and LeadingAge Kentucky, the event offers an informal evening with colleagues from all three states. Registration is open through Oct. 21, with tickets priced at $50 for provider members and $150 for business firms.

Register for the 2026 LeadingAge Annual Meeting by 8 a.m. ET on Friday, Oct. 23. On-site registration will also be available Oct. 24-28.
