News & Annoucements

As the current global pandemic has progressed to this current stage, it has become abundantly clear that the current planned dates for Convergence 26 are simply untenable. Convergence 26 is being postponed until we have a better idea of when social distancing will no longer be the most prudent societal standard, and when we can once again safely and comfortably welcome our national and international guests to our fair city.

Ticket holders will be refunded soon, and the reservations for those who’ve booked within our hotel block will be automatically cancelled.

Please stay safe out there, take care of yourselves and each other, and stay tuned for future updates.

Single-day tickets have now been released, in addition to the “Convergence VIP” package (full weekend badge + C26 logo lapel pin). Purchase Here

We are quite gratified to begin the announcements of the band lineup for Convergence 26. Our first reveal: Twin Tribes!

We’ve been almost overwhelmed by the sheer volume of great bands and DJs who’ve formally expressed their interest in performing at next year’s Convergence, and now it’s time to announce that we are no longer accepting submissions.

Committee members Tarik Dozier, Lisa Frye, and Edwin Alberto have made an appearance on the Cat vs Bat Podcast, on which they discuss the delights of Louisville, Radio Arcane, and what we have in store for C26 with DJ Mistress McCutchan. Give it a listen.

We’re pleased to announce the official hotel for 2020—the gorgeous, spacious, well-appointed, river-adjacent Galt House Hotel. For details and booking information, visit our Hotel page.
