2026 GCA Greeting Card Conference

August 17-19 | Louisville, KY

Thank you to everyone who joined GCA in Louisville for our Annual Conference. For the first time in GCA history, the GCA Annual Conference included the Louie Award Celebration! These two events came together in one landmark event, bringing the full greeting card community under one roof at the historic Seelbach Hilton for creativity, connection, education, and celebration.

Learn, Celebrate, Connect, and Grow

The GCA Annual Conference brought together creators, publishers, retailers, suppliers, and partners for meaningful education and conversation. Programming delivered practical takeaways, sparked new ideas, and strengthened businesses—while fostering the relationships that move our industry forward.

Information on the 2027 conference will be released in the coming months!
