TxA26 Annual Conference & Design Expo
TxA26 Annual Conference & Design Expo is the premier event hosted by Texas Society of Architects (TxA). This year’s conference focuses on cultivating the world of architecture and those within the field. Architects and designers must garner connections and foster mentorship, taking every opportunity to learn from one another to advance partnerships, knowledge, and skills. The built environment is inherently future-focused — shaped by those with the vision to invest today in time, knowledge, and relationships that will define the world of tomorrow. Those within architecture must lift each other up and be stewards for the profession. TxA25 features world-renowned keynote speakers, curated CE sessions, exclusive architectural tours, the largest architectural products showcase in the Southwest, and events for attendees at all stages of their career. This year’s event will be held in San Antonio from Oct. 15 – Oct. 17, 2026. For more information and to register, visit texasarchitects.org/conference.
