Connecting Events

This year’s location in downtown Louisville allows for connection to transpire beyond the conference rooms of the hotel.

Convention attendees will have the opportunity to watch the Junior Angus Show on Sunday, Nov. 15, and can opt to stay for the Super ROV Angus Show on Tuesday, Nov. 17.
