Join the largest gathering of blind people in the world. The National Federation of the Blind National Convention is the premier event for training, support, and information for the blind community. It also serves as a governing body, democratically electing our leadership and establishing each year's organizational priorities. Through the convention app, you can network with thousands of blind role models, connect with leaders in the field of blindness, attend presentations on a variety of empowering topics, and learn about the latest in technology and innovation from our sponsor and exhibitors. The 2026 National Convention of the National Federation of the Blind will be held July 3 through July 8 in Austin, Texas.
