2026 National Food & Beverage Management Conference

Après & Innovation

February 22–25, 2026 | Blue Mountains, ON

Where Professional Growth Meets Mountain Adventure

This February, club management professionals from across Canada came together for a conference experience that was truly peak perfection in the heart of ski season at Blue Mountains. The 2026 National Food & Beverage Management Conference blended innovative education with the energy of the outdoors, creating an ideal balance of learning, networking, and adventure.

What Attendees Experienced

Education Indoors: Engaging sessions led by industry experts, thoughtfully tailored to the needs of tomorrow’s leaders.

Adventure Outdoors: Optional activities embraced winter in Blue Mountains—skiing, snowshoeing, and relaxing fireside.

Local Experiences: Curated tours highlighted a unique blend of hospitality, culture, and taste.

Après Moments: Attendees had the opportunity to unwind, connect, and celebrate with peers after full days of learning.

This year’s theme, “Après & Innovation,” captured the spirit of the event—bringing together the warmth of connection with the spark of fresh ideas to take back to clubs across the country.

We were proud to welcome such an engaged and dynamic group for an experience that supported professional growth while refreshing the spirit.
