The District Conferences for FBLA every year are at the Arapahoe Fairgrounds. The conference is the beginning of your FBLA journey each year. For presentations top four make it to state and for testing events top five make it. It is a great place to start making connections and learning the world of business. Districts also will have keynote speakers during the day while competitions are going on. It also has colleges there to talk to as well as community events like making blankets or dog toys. It is always fun with something going on and a great first exposure in to FBLA competitions.

Nationals
Every year the best students in each competition of each state get the chance to compete at a national level! This year FBLA 2024 nationals are in Orlando Florida. Nationals is a wonderful experience and highly recommend going if you make it. It is full of traveling, new experiences, and making lifelong friends. Every day of nationals you can explore the convention, explore the local college, or go on the daily trip to a museum, aquarium, or national park. One thing guaranteed is you will not be bored once on the five-day long trip. Nationals is a great place to learn how to network as trading pins are given to you as soon as you enter the conference. Allowing you to go up to students in other states to talk and trade. Not only are their students from other states but there are also students from other countries like Canada, the District of Columbia, and even China! If you would like to make Nationals and want to go please reach out to the advisors or officers to help!
