Conference and Trade Show
February 9-11, 2027, River Rock Casino Resort
Richmond | British Columbia | Canada

To all Golf and Sportsturf Management Industry Suppliers and Service Providers,
Excitement for the 63rd Annual WCTA Conference and Trade Show is growing and we've been receiving questions and booth requests over the past few weeks. Thanks for the enthusiasm!
Event organization is well underway and there are a few things we're ready to share:
• For the seventh time in the event's history, WCTA's largest annual undertaking will take place February 9-11, 2027 at the River Rock Casino Resort. Previous visits to this popular venue include 2018, 2019, 2020, 2023, 2025, and 2026.
• Planning for 2027 is in motion, with a draft show program expected in the next fee weeks.
• Trade show registration is anticipated to open in late October 2026, followed soon after by delegate registration in early November.
"Our recent member survey shows overwhelming support for the River Rock," said WCTA Executive Director, Jerry Rousseau. He added, "other venues were considered for WCTA2027, but it's very hard to beat the River Rock not to mention, seven is a very lucky number!"
Much more is still to come. In the meantime, thank you for your continued support of the longest running and largest sportsfield and golf course management event in western Canada, the WCTA Conference and Trade Show. We're looking forward to seeing you at the River Rock once again in February 2027!
