North American Spine Society / NASS Annual Convention

The North American Spine Society is bringing its Annual Convention to the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center from October 14 to 17, 2026. It's a four-day run, so it's more of a residency than a one-off—the kind of thing that takes over a good chunk of the week if you're planning to be there for the whole thing.

The convention is built around spine care, and the schedule reflects that. The latest advancements in spine surgery and treatment come through expert-led sessions, workshops, and research presentations. The workshops are where you get into the weeds, and the research presentations bring the newest data to the floor. Between those, there are lectures and panel discussions that cover surgical innovation, patient care, and new treatment options. It's a broad spread, so you can follow the technical surgical side or lean more toward the patient care and treatment end.

Beyond the sessions, the convention works as a networking platform. It brings together leading spine care professionals from across the field, and a good part of the value comes from the exchange of ideas that happens between the scheduled events. If you're in the industry, it's as much about who you run into in the halls as what you hear in the rooms.

It all takes place at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, 900 E Market St, San Antonio, TX 78205, from Thursday, October 14, through Sunday, October 17.
