AuDacity 2026 was held at Hyatt Regency Hotel, 1300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55403, United States.
Published registration categories included ADA-member audiologists, AuD students, and non-audiologist clinic representatives.
It was most worthwhile for practicing audiologists, especially private practice owners, since nearly all the speakers held Au.D. credentials, business topics were covered by MBA and legal speakers, and registrants remained eligible for CE even if they watched recordings online. The exhibitor list spanned hearing aid makers such as Phonak, ReSound and Beltone plus financing and staffing firms, which helped clinic buyers.
Clinicians at audiology conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks and a blouse or collared shirt, with comfortable shoes for the sessions and exhibit hall.
