Strong Towns National Gathering


  • Italian Cultural Center 132 Algoma Street South Thunder Bay, ON, P7B 3B7 Canada (map)

Calling all Strong Towns advocates: It’s time to meet your movement.

LOCATION: The Westin, Charlotte, NC  |   DATE: May 30-31, 2023

The Strong Towns National Gathering is a new annual event in partnership with the Congress for the New Urbanism, taking place the day before the annual Congress. 

We know you get fired up by the stories and issues you encounter at Strong Towns. But it’s not always clear what to do next. The work of making your neighborhood stronger can often feel lonely, slow, and even discouraging. But you don’t have to stay stuck in that feeling. We know that effective advocates don’t operate on their own. Let us introduce you to your allies and kindred spirits from across the country. The Gathering will include inspiring speakers, hands-on workshops, and lots of opportunities to meet fellow advocates.  We hope you’ll return home excited, emboldened, and equipped—knowing you are an indispensable part of an energetic, unstoppable movement.
