After two years of being an online-only event, this year the International Convention will be hybrid, meaning it can be accessed either online or in person.
If you enjoy the energy and excitement of traveling and meeting old friends and new people, make plans to be at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee, from Wednesday, August 17, through Saturday, August 20, 2022.
If you get more out of watching sessions and events at your own pace, register for the online experience and watch sessions whenever and wherever works for you. The online platform will run the same dates as the in-person event.
In-person attendees will have the opportunity to join a Toastmasters Night at the Grand Ole Opry, networking lunches, and the President’s Celebration, which includes dinner and dancing. The World Championship of Public Speaking® will take place both in person in Nashville and online, and be streamed live to online attendees.
All attendees, whether in person or remote, will have the ability to network with others through shared chat features and networking lounges, as well as post on the popular social wall and interact with people across the globe. Everyone can participate in online games and onsite challenges for further opportunities to connect and get in the spirit.
Similar to the 2021 International Convention, there will be four tracks (Public Speaking, Professional Development, Personal Growth, and Inclusive Excellence), with four sessions in each track to choose from. Mix and match or just follow one track! Four of the education sessions will take place live from the stage in Nashville (and will also be available on the web platform), and 12 sessions will be shown solely in an online format, which is available to all attendees, whether online or in person.
The online all-access pass is 45 USD through August 20; the online limited-access pass is free. The on-demand all-access pass is 75 and will be available for purchasing starting September 2022. In-person rates are 675 if purchased by July 13, 725 through August 12, and 775 onsite, August 16 through 20. All prices USD.
