Event Leaders Exchange announces Seattle as the next destination for the ELX Annual Congress, taking place August 9–12, 2027, at the Hyatt Regency Seattle in collaboration with event partner Visit Seattle.
Event Leaders Exchange (ELX) has announced that the ELX Annual Congress 2027 will take place in Seattle, bringing its growing global community of senior corporate event leaders together at the Hyatt Regency Seattle on August 9–12, 2027.
The event will be delivered in collaboration with Visit Seattle, joining ELX as event partner to help bring the 2027 Congress experience to life in the city. The announcement follows a significant year of growth for the ELX Annual Congress. In 2026, the flagship event at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas welcomed double the attendance of the previous year, while continuing to prioritise the trusted peer exchange, candid conversation and strong relationships that define the ELX community.
Seattle will provide the next setting for ELX members to come together, exchange perspectives and continue the conversations shaping leadership at the top of corporate events.
Located in the heart of downtown Seattle, the Hyatt Regency will serve as the home of the 2027 Congress, bringing the community together in a city recognised for innovation, creativity and global business.
The ELX Annual Congress is designed exclusively for ELX members and creates dedicated space for senior corporate event leaders to step away from delivery, share perspectives with true peers and discuss the realities of leading complex event functions.
As the event continues to grow, its purpose remains consistent: creating a trusted environment for connection, shared learning and honest conversation among leaders working at a similar level of responsibility and complexity. This reflects the direction established at the 2026 Congress, where growth in attendance was matched by a continued focus on maintaining the close-knit character of the ELX community.
With the destination now announced, pre-registration is open exclusively to ELX members.
The ELX Annual Congress 2027 will take place August 9–12, 2027 at the Hyatt Regency Seattle. ELX members can pre-register here.
