Join Libertarians from across the country for the 2026 Libertarian National Convention, hosted at the historic Amway Grand Plaza and DeVos Place Convention Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This five-day event is the central gathering of the liberty movement—where activists, candidates, and leaders come together to set the party’s direction, debate platform and bylaws, and elect the next Libertarian National Committee.
Even in a non-presidential year, this convention plays a pivotal role in shaping the Libertarian Party’s strategy heading into 2028. Expect spirited discussion, powerful keynote speakers, and opportunities to network with fellow champions of individual liberty, limited government, and personal responsibility.
Highlights include:
Election of National Committee officers and representatives
Platform and bylaws sessions shaping the party’s future
Training and networking for candidates and activists
Exhibitor hall featuring liberty-minded businesses and organizations
Sponsorship and VIP opportunities for supporters of the movement
Whether you’re a longtime Libertarian or newly exploring a different political path, the National Convention offers inspiration, community, and a front-row seat to liberty in action.
