NARA 2026 Annual Convention

October 20–23

On behalf of everyone at NARA we invite you to join us for the 2026 NARA Convention, October 20–23,2026,  in Tucson, Arizona, at the beautiful Loews Ventana Canyon Resort.

Our annual convention is a special time for our members and the rendering industry. It brings together leaders, innovators, and colleagues from across the supply chain for several days of insight, connection, and meaningful conversation.

As global markets evolve and sustainability, policy, and innovation continue to drive change, this year’s program will explore how the rendering industry is adapting, advancing, and leading the way forward. We’re planning a strong lineup of speakers who will share perspectives on the trends and developments shaping our future.

Just as important, the convention offers an opportunity to reconnect with friends and colleagues, build new relationships, and strengthen our industry community.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Tucson, we’ve also planned a variety of activities—including dedicated spouse events—so you and your guests can enjoy all that this unique destination has to offer.

For more information, watch the video below.

We hope you’ll make plans to join us!
