Listen: Mike Testa, President and CEO, Visit Sacramento
The Almond Conference 2021 will be live, in-person and back in Sacramento this December in the city’s newly renovated SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, the Almond Board of California’s Board of Directors decided overwhelmingly.
The 49thannual Almond Conference is the almond industry’s premiere event and draws attendees and exhibitors from around the globe. It is also one of Sacramento’s largest yearly business gatherings but was forced to go virtual in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The 2021 conference, scheduled for Dec. 7-9, is expected to draw about 4,000 participants and will be the Sacramento convention center’s first large returning business event after its more than two-year, $350 million renovation and expansion. In 2019 during construction, The Almond Conference temporarily moved to Cal Expo.
