EXPLORE. DISCOVER. CONNECT
ONLINE CONFERENCE
September 24 & 25
Discover what’s next in the West! WAA’s annual booking and touring conference creates space for important field-wide dialogue and engagement, bringing together the performing arts community to pursue their shared goal of programming live performances: a place for presenters, artists, agents, and practitioners from the West and beyond to spark connections, discover and learn, strengthen ties, and generate business opportunities.
This two-day convening includes informative workshops, dynamic forums, and pre-recorded showcase performances.

PAST WAA CONFERENCES
We bring our annual conference to a different city each year, making the most of the West’s vibrant performing arts infrastructure. We strive to produce an annual conference inspired by the city’s unique arts, culture, community, and infrastructure, and each year convene a Host Committee of local performing arts professionals to provide insight on and connections that help inform the scope and direction of the event.
