Where: Broken Arrow, Oklahoma
Who hosts: Great Plains Region
Join Grange members from across the nation for the 160th Annual National Grange Convention, November 9–14, 2026, in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Whether you're a first-time attendee or a returning delegate, Convention is where the Grange comes together to celebrate our accomplishments, shape our future, strengthen friendships, and experience the very best of our organization.
As we gather for our 160th Convention, you'll find speakers and workshops that will inspire, opportunities to connect with Grangers of all ages, a showcase of the best of the region, vendors, and chances to speak with sponsors and partners, and a chance to experience the hospitality and culture of Oklahoma, as well as the work of the National Grange. From the Welcome Dinner on November 8 through the Celebration Banquet on November 14, this week will be filled with learning, fellowship, and memories that will last long after you return home. We hope you'll make plans now to be part of this historic gathering as we launch a year-long celebration of the National Grange's 160th anniversary.
