2026 ITTONA Convention
ITTONA – International Tyrolean Trentino Organization of North America
October 8, 2026 through October 12, 2026
Denver, Colorado
Every two or three years there is a convention for folks of Trentino descent in the US and Canada. In 2024, it was held in Trentino. Past convention locations have included Toronto, Canada; Ogden, UT; Cleveland, OH; Solvay, NY; and Los Angeles, CA.
In 2026, the 26th convention will be held in Denver, Colorado. Please keep the convention dates October 8-12, 2026, in mind as you do your travel planning for 2026, (as well as the registration deadline of April 30th.) There are two detailed and beautiful PDF’s at the links below that contain all the information (cost, dates, itinerary). The primary contact for the information at this point is Anna Svaldi Vann, of the Colorado club. (Her contact information is in the PDF.) There is also a Pre-Convention Tour, October 4-8, 2026, and a Post-Convention Tour, October 12-17, 2026.
The convention is known by the acronym ITTONA, International Tyrolean Trentini Organization of North America, a legacy name chosen years ago, to describe and create a convention and a planning board to bring clubs together.
Attending these conventions is a great opportunity to meet other Trentini. We hope to see you there!
