The 2020 NRPA Annual Conference: A Virtual Experience (NRPA Virtual) will take place October 27–29. NRPA Virtual will not only bring us all together as a park and recreation community, but will also serve as a platform for networking and exchanging ideas in new and imaginative ways.
We are taking the best of the in-person conference, including the education sessions, keynote speakers and exhibitors, and adding innovative and interactive formats to enhance the overall experience. Most importantly, we will be leveraging the unique opportunity the online format offers to foster collaboration and connection with park and recreation professionals around the country and potentially the world.
