AARFP Conference & Trade Show
What a week.
The People Made It
With over 200+ delegates in attendance, the energy was undeniable. From first-time attendees to seasoned operators, the conversations, laughter, and connections carried through every session, hallway chat, and evening event.
This is what “You Belong Here” looks like.
Learning That Matters
Attendees took part in sessions that tackled real challenges and real solutions from technical skills and facility operations to leadership, innovation, and emerging trends.
The goal was simple: send people home with ideas they can actually use. And judging by the conversations happening throughout the week, mission accomplished.
A Trade Show That Delivered
The Trade Show at Keyera Place brought together industry suppliers and partners who play a critical role in supporting recreation facilities.
Attendees explored new products, asked questions, built relationships, and discovered solutions they can bring back to their communities. It was a full day of connection, conversation, and opportunity.
Moments We Won’t Forget
From the opening keynote to packed sessions, from networking events to the AGM and banquet, the week was filled with standout moments.
The energy carried right through to the final night, great conversations, well-earned laughs and a few unforgettable surprises.
Thank You
To our attendees: thank you for showing up, leaning in, and making this event what it was. To our sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, and partners: thank you for your support, your expertise, and your commitment to this industry.
What’s Next?
If this week proved anything, it’s that this industry is strong, connected, and always evolving. We’re already looking ahead to what’s next and we can’t wait to do it all again but in Calgary next year. Until then, keep learning, keep connecting, and keep building the spaces that bring communities together.
