The Annual WASBA Pacific Northwest Beekeeping Conference 2027 has been announced for the first weekend in October, 2027, in Wenatchee, WA. Exact dates are not published yet.

Annual WASBA Pacific Northwest Beekeeping Conference 2026 took place October 2–3, 2026.

It was held at Wenatchee Convention Center.

The published audience was Pacific Northwest beekeepers, from hobbyist to commercial.

It was most useful for hobbyist and commercial beekeepers in the Pacific Northwest, since the all-inclusive ticket covered a Friday dinner and Saturday microscopy workshops, and speakers were billed to include Dr. Brandon Hopkins and Dr. David Peck. Beekeepers outside the region, or those wanting a large commercial trade show, would have got less from it, as the sponsors were regional bee suppliers such as Woods Bee Co. and Cashmere Bees and workshop space was limited.

Beekeepers at regional conferences usually wear casual, practical clothing such as jeans, flannel or fleece and comfortable shoes, with layers for early October in Wenatchee.
