2026 Convention: the Bay Area

If you haven’t registered yet, now is the time. Registration is open, and we encourage everyone to secure their spot before the convention begins. Early registration also helps you finalize your travel and accommodation plans with confidence.

EMC is powered by dedicated volunteers, and we’re looking for community members who want to help make this year’s convention a success.

Whether you’re available for a few hours or throughout the weekend, volunteering is a great way to meet people, serve the community, and contribute to an unforgettable experience for attendees.

Volunteer opportunities are now available, and we invite you to sign up and be part of the team that helps bring EMC 2026 to life.
