Message from the Organizing Committee,

Welcome back, turf management conference and trade show goers, to the one-of-a-kind River Rock Casino Resort, BC’s largest casino resort, for the 62nd Annual WCTA Conference and Trade Show taking place February 10-12, 2026!

A return to the River Rock in 2026 marks the 6th time the WCTA’s largest annual undertaking will be hosted in Richmond with previous visits in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2023 and 2025. 

15 world-class presenters will deliver nearly 30 hours of education programming and along with the largest trade show of its kind in western Canada featuring leading suppliers and service providers, this event is designed to elevate your turf management expertise.

Everything you need to learn, connect, and discover the latest in turf management alongside 500+ industry professionals is available electronically at www.wcta-online.com and via regular posts/emails sent throughout the show to all delegates. 

To our turf management delegates, you have at your disposal all the major equipment, fertilizer, irrigation, accessory, amenity and every other important turf management product and service imaginable, live, in person and in real time. It’s a rare opportunity to look, touch, feel, listen and find immediate answers to your burning questions, check out the new kit and catch up with friends and colleagues. 

To our suppliers, service providers and sponsors, thank you for supporting all turf management sectors, the trade show and of course the WCTA. We work hard to provide the best possible opportunity for you to interact with hundreds of turf management personnel, all under one roof, and appreciate your participation.

To all those with a hand in helping organize and produce our largest annual undertaking, including WCTA Directors, staff and production team, thank-you for making tremendous efforts in putting all the pieces in their right places!

So enjoy and take full advantage of your opportunity in Richmond. By attending, you’re showing an important commitment to your career and I look forward to seeing you at the River Rock this February!
