Announcement: New Location & Dates for Phoenix WBC 2025

Written by Amy Acton, RN, BSN on October 24, 2024

We are excited to announce that the Phoenix World Burn Congress 2025 will take place in a new location with updated dates! This decision allows us to provide an even more enriching and impactful experience for our burn survivors, caregivers, burn care professionals, and supporters.


New Location

📍 The Northern Kentucky Convention Center (just minutes away from downtown Cincinnati, OH!)


New Dates

📅 November 12 – 14, 2025

Our team is working closely with the new venue to ensure a seamless and welcoming event, complete with support resources, educational programming, workshops, and, most importantly, fostering a strong sense of community with each other.


Why the Change?

The attendee experience is our top priority. Given the feedback we received after hosting Phoenix WBC at a Gaylord resort in 2023 and after careful consideration and discussions with key stakeholders, we have decided to move the conference to a new location and rescheduled dates.

This decision was made to ensure that we offer the most accessible and meaningful experience possible for our attendees. The new location provides improved facilities and opportunities to expand our programming, including:

  • An intimate hotel setting with additional event space: This allows us to offer more sessions, and we will be the only group/event at the hotel during this time.

  • Lower-cost accommodations: Attendees can expect to save at least $30/day on their hotel reservations and affordable parking.

  • Better food and beverage value: Food and beverage costs are lower at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center, allowing better selection and a wider variety of food. Additionally, breakfast will now be included in hotel block reservations, lowering the cost for participants to attend.

  • A more accessible city location: Unlike the Grapevine location, the Northern Kentucky Convention Center offers dozens of walkable restaurants and attractions, including the city of Cincinnati right across the river.

  • Preferred dates for burn care professionals: The initial dates for Phoenix WBC 2025 conflicted with the Southern Regional Burn Conference. Our rescheduled dates have fewer conflicts for the larger burn community.
