The Great Lakes Damage Prevention Conference & Expo Returns
Building on a powerful debut, the Great Lakes Damage Prevention Conference & Expo returns as the region’s premier gathering dedicated to protecting critical infrastructure and enhancing public safety. What began as an evolution of our Annual Meeting has quickly become a must‑attend event for the damage prevention community across the Great Lakes region.
Last year’s conference welcomed more than 570 attendees, featured 20 sponsors, and showcased 40 vendors, bringing together excavators, infrastructure leaders, public officials, utility professionals, and emergency responders for meaningful collaboration and knowledge sharing.
Attendees can once again expect two full days of targeted educational sessions, an expanded Expo Hall with interactive exhibits and live vendor demonstrations, and extensive networking opportunities with industry peers. Continuing education credits (CECs) and certificates will be available for qualifying sessions.
Join us February 10–12, 2027, at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids, Michigan, as we continue advancing damage prevention through education, innovation, and collaboration—strengthening the infrastructure and communities we all serve.
