The 2026 World Pickleball Convention & Conference is returning for its sixth annual gathering from Friday, October 16 through Sunday, October 18. Held at the Palm Beach County Convention Center, event organizers anticipate over 10,000 participants following an attendance of more than 5,000 visitors last year.
Humana has joined the event as the official title sponsor, extending invitations to 1.4 million members across the country. Venue staff and security operations are expanding ahead of the gathering, which will also host both the NPL National Championships and the PPA Championships inside the facility.
The event features a range of industry investors, executives, coaches, players, and fans. The convention floor will showcase various product developers, including court builders, training equipment providers, activewear brands, and travel operators catering to the sport.
Newly confirmed exhibiting sponsors include Enlio Sports Flooring, which is providing surfaces for the on-site championship matches. Additional exhibitors include Dropshot, presenting a rapid-deploy digital scoreboard system for on-court matches, and 1st Source Lighting, displaying commercial LED fixtures designed for sports courts.
Other participating brands feature The Pickleball Weekly Magazine and Belize’s Prana Maya Island Resort. While trade show exhibit space is nearly sold out, general admission tickets and tournament player sign-ups are available on the official event website.
