Bank Executives Conference

The 2026 WBA Bank Executives Conference will be held Wednesday, February 4 through Friday, February 6 at the Kalahari Convention Center in Wisconsin Dells. The conference will kick off with a networking reception on Wednesday evening, but bankers are invited and encouraged to arrive earlier for optional afternoon “banker only” peer group discussions starting at 2:30 p.m. The conference will adjourn by 11:00 a.m. on Friday.

This conference is ideal for community banking executives to come together for networking and education. Attendees will enjoy two days of networking, several national keynote speakers, role based facilitated discussion sessions, and an exhibit hall with 70+ WBA Associate Members.

Check out the conference agenda and speakers on the event registration site for all the details!

Who Should Attend from Your Bank?

Many WBA member banks have found great value in bringing their team of executives along to the conference. Bringing a team allows your group to attend different breakout sessions to take in all the great conference content, while also attending keynotes, meals, and networking activities to share the experience and develop your team’s action plan as you take what you have learned back to your full bank team.
