Convention Schedule

June 25 - 27, 2026

Sigma Kappa’s national convention is full of opportunities to connect with sisters, recognize each other’s achievements, conduct the business of the Sorority, and enjoy vibrant downtown St. Louis. Check out some of the highlights of our schedule each day below!

Programming at Convention:

Delegates & Visitors

This year’s convention offers a shared experience for all attendees, with additional programming designed specifically for delegates and visitors. Much of the convention experience is shared by all attendees; delegates and visitors will come together for educational sessions, keynote speakers, networking opportunities and ritual ceremonies – creating a collective space for learning, connection, and sisterhood.

Delegate programming includes required business meetings focused on leadership, governance, and organizational decision-making, in addition to the shared convention sessions.

Visitor programming includes access to all shared sessions, as well as a guided tour of our host city, offering an opportunity to explore and engage beyond official convention business.

Attendees selected as delegates should register as such to participate in business meetings. All other attendees should register as visitors and will still have access to a robust convention experience.

*This schedule is subject to change.
