Are you ready for an Adventure?

Each year, Hamvention invites the amateur radio community to come together in celebration of innovation, friendship, and the limitless spirit of radio. For 2026, we are proud to announce our new theme:

Radio Adventure

Radio has always been about exploration — of ideas, technologies, distances, and possibilities. From the earliest spark-gap pioneers to today’s digital experimenters, satellite operators, contesters, emergency communicators, and outdoor enthusiasts, amateur radio continues to be a gateway to discovery.

Begin your trek to Hamvention — three days filled with learning, discovery, innovation, and community. Whether you come to shop the flea market, attend forums, explore new technology, volunteer, or reconnect with friends old and new, your adventure awaits in Xenia.

Our volunteers are working hard to make this the best show yet!
