ANOTHER MILESTONE YEAR FOR THE WA OR POTATO CONFERENCE

The 2026 WA/OR Potato Conference exceeded all expectations and continued to set new standards for the potato industry. With 3,000 attendees, this year's conference brought together growers, vendors, sponsors, and industry professionals. The turnout was exceptional, marking a significant milestone in the conference's history. The 2026 show marks the end of an era in the original Three Rivers Convention Center and the Toyota Center. The excitement was palpable as attendees flooded into the conference venue. Parking lots overflowed as participants arrived eager to engage, learn, and network. The general session saw outstanding attendance. The atmosphere was electric, as experts shared insights into the latest industry trends, innovations, and research. The conversations were rich and meaningful, with attendees eager to learn from one another and explore new opportunities within the industry.

The 2026 WA/OR Potato Conference would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors. Their contributions played a pivotal role in ensuring the success of the event. We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to each sponsor for their commitment to the potato industry and their support of this conference. Your partnership is invaluable, and we are truly grateful for your dedication.

A special thank you goes out to the incredible volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly. Your contributions made all the difference, and we are deeply appreciative of your efforts.

Thank you again to everyone who made the 2026 WA/OR Potato Conference a success. We look forward to seeing you in the brand new, expanded Three Rivers Convention Center in 2027!
