2025 Better Events Conference

A conference for event pros, by event pros.

We're back for the third annual Better Events Conference hosted by the Better Events Podcast (Mary Davidson & Logan Clements). Join us virtually on Wednesday, October 1st and in person in Seattle on Thursday, December 18th at a secret location (to be announced to attendees in the weeks before the event).

Each year we explore a new facet of what it means to grow, lead, and create better events together - without hierarchy, gatekeeping or death-by-Powerpoint. We’re focused on recognizing the power of the event pros in the room and creating opportunities for connection.

Our promise to you is that you will leave with one new tip, trick or perspective that you can immediately apply to your role or event and you will meet three new people in the events community.

Wednesday, October 1st - Virtual Conference - Swapcard

Back by popular demand, this event is 100% virtual, allowing us to all gather, no matter the distance! We'll be ditching the PowerPoint and lectures (as much as possible) and instead focusing on conversation starters, interactive workshops, group consulting, and more.

(50% of the sessions will be recorded and available for attendees post-event)

Thursday, December 18th - In-Person Workshop - Seattle, WA

Magic happens when we gather and our in-person day is truly something special. Featuring interactive workshops and small group work, you will leave with a new system, goal, or perspective on your event career. We'll be gathering at the Labour Temple in downtown Seattle.

(This day is 100% in-person and will not be offered virtually or recorded)

Reminder: this is highly interactive and NOT like you're typical conference so come ready to participate.

We're so excited to come together as a community to learn how to create, host, and attend Better Events!
