AGS Announces Upcoming Conclave Locations
Here’s where the event will be in 2022 and 2023.

The 2022 event will be held in Oklahoma at the Oklahoma City Omni Hotel from April 25-27, while Conclave 2023 will take place in Kentucky at the Omni Louisville Hotel from May 1-3.
“One of our main goals as we plan Conclave is to provide a different experience each year. We never rely on successes of the past,” said Alexis Padis, CGA, Chair of the AGS Conclave Committee, and Secretary on the AGS Board of Directors, in a press release about the location announcement.
“While the distinctive sessions and networking events are a key component, the host city of each Conclave is a huge part of what makes the annual experience so unique and special. No two Conclaves are ever alike.”
This year’s Conclave will be held in Dallas at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel from September 12 to 14.
Keynote speakers include actor Henry Winkler, Josh Linkner, and Amelia Rose Earhart.
