The LavaCon Conference on Content Strategy and Technical Communication Management

Our 25th Anniversary!

3–6 October 2027 · Denver, Colorado · In Person and Online

The LavaCon Conference started in Hawaii (hence our name) to help professionals in Content Strategy, Content Operations, and Technical Communication reduce costs and generate revenue using state-of-the-art publishing technologies.

Our 25th annual conference takes place October 3–6 in Denver, Colorado, with both in-person and virtual attendance options. More than 70 sessions and hands-on workshops will help your team scale content operations, prepare content for AI, and demonstrate measurable business value.

However, LavaCon is more than just a conference. It’s a gathering place where content professionals share best practices and lessons learned, network with peers, and build professional relationships that will last for years to come.

Let’s Give Them Something To Talk About

“One of the attractions of LavaCon to me is how sassy (for the lack of a better term) it is. It gets big names from major companies covering really important stuff, but there is also a sense of playfulness.”

L.R., Senior Content Developer

“I meet the most generous people at LavaCon. Attendees are quick to share their experiences and learned best practices, and as a team of one at my company, I feel like I have unofficial teammates at the conference.”

J.P., Content Experience Strategist

“The best all-around content strategy conference right now is LavaCon—especially for enterprise content strategy, content operations, technical communication, AI in content, and proving business value.”
