California Charter Schools Conference 2027

According to CCSA, the organization is planning for over 2,700 attendees at the 2027 Conference in Sacramento. This demographic data is drawn from the 2026 California Charter Schools Conference held in Long Beach, CA, and is representative of the expected audience. The conference reaches educators and industry representatives, including charter leaders, board members, developers, business managers, policy makers and teachers, with audience segmentation typically shown by grade level, instructional model, years a school has been in operation, and primary job function.

Exhibit booth space is priced per 10' x 10' booth, with early and standard rates:

• For-profit / nonprofit with revenues over $2 million: $3,050 (early rate, deadline September 15, 2026) or $4,075 (standard rate).

The California Charter Schools Conference is the annual convening of the charter school community, hosted by the California Charter Schools Association (CCSA). The event rotates among major California cities; the 2026 conference was held in Long Beach, CA, and the 2027 conference moves to Sacramento. It has grown into what CCSA describes as the state's premier charter school event, expected to draw more than 2,700 attendees in 2027.
