WVC Vegas 2027

The organizer describes WVC as one of the largest veterinary conferences in the world but does not publish an official attendee count on its site. Third-party listings estimate the show draws roughly 13,000–20,000+ veterinary professionals, though these figures are not confirmed by the organizer. Its audience spans veterinarians, veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, practice managers, administrative staff, students, and other animal-health industry members.

WVC began in 1928 as the Intermountain Livestock Sanitary Association and has grown into one of the largest and most exciting veterinary education conferences in the country. The event was long known as the Western Veterinary Conference; it is now branded simply as WVC. The 2027 conference is promoted as celebrating 99 years of veterinary education. The conference has since expanded to two locations, WVC Vegas and WVC Nashville, both organized by Viticus Group.
