Your Girl Scout troop or Girl Scout family can join 10,000+ Girl Scouts at the 2026 Girl Scout Convention in Washington, DC, July 23-25, 2026, as we celebrate the spirit, individuality, and self-confidence that make Girl Scouts shine.
This special gathering happens only once every three years and will take place at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. From July 23-25, Girl Scouts from all over the country will stream into our nation's capital for a multi-day event featuring interactive workshops, inspiring speakers, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures that spark forever friendships.
4-person entry for the 3-day convention is $1,600-$2,000/or $440-$550 per person depending on timing of registration. The 4-person passs includes:
- Entry to the event for 3 days with at lest one scheduled session a day, although many activities go on all day and are unlimited
- Transportation from the convention center to/from one of 17 Girl Scout hotels
- Admission to the National Gold Award Celebration
- Admission to the National Bridging Ceremony and fun patch
There are 17 hotels to choose from that are roughly $250/night for hotel rooms with 2 queen beds or one king. Some have roll-away bed opportunities.
Earlier in the week (July 20-22) our 58th National Council Session Business Meeting will be held in Washington DC where delegates from around the country and overseas gather to vote on and discuss issues important to our Movement and elect leaders for the next triennium.
