2026 Annual Convention

TIBD Annual Convention

June 18–20 | Gruene, Texas

Join us in historic Gruene, Texas for this year's TIBD Annual Convention — three days of connection, education, and celebration with the building design community. We're still finalizing the full schedule, but it's shaping up to be something truly special. We're excited to bring you a variety of engaging CEU classes and are incredibly grateful for the support of our generous sponsors who help make this event possible.

A curated list of lodging options is available here to help you plan your stay. We suggest making hotel reservations early as they will book up for summer break.
