5 answeredThe 2026 conference is scheduled for October 11–15.
It is held at Hyatt Regency Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The listed attendee categories include active AZFA members, retired AZFA members, and full-conference guests.
It is most useful for facilities and maintenance staff at zoos and aquariums, since the association's 33rd annual conference is a members' gathering with tiered sponsors, and Cincinnati offers the Cincinnati Zoo and Newport Aquarium as working examples of the facilities involved. Professionals outside animal-facility operations, or those wanting a large multi-industry show, would get less from a niche five-day program aimed at AZFA members.
Facility and operations staff at zoo and aquarium conferences usually wear casual to business casual, and comfortable walking shoes and weather-ready layers suit any site visits in Cincinnati in October.
