Every two years, Alpha Chi Omegas from all over the country gather for the national convention. 2024 will be our 62nd such event! But what actually happens at convention? What can you expect if you’ve never been?
CONNECT
Alpha Chi Omega is about connection, and there’s no better place to do that than convention. Reunite with sisters you haven’t seen since college and network with sisters of all ages as you make new friends. There’s even a special event – Reunion Night Dinner – that celebrates our collegiate chapters and the bonds we share.
One past convention attendee recalled, “At my first convention, I knew like three people before I got there. By the end of the first night, I was in the hotel bar, surrounded by the Texas contingency with 20-30 brand new sister-friends, many of whom I’m still friends with 17 years later!”

GROW
Lifelong learning is key to the Alpha Chi Omega experience, and convention provides ample opportunities to grow personally, professionally and in your Alpha Chi Omega role. Education tracks are intentionally developed for each attendee group so you’re sure to learn something to take back to your volunteer position or collegiate chapter. And engaging speakers will provide relevant lessons to help you grow as a real, strong woman.
“At age 83, I didn’t think I could get this enthused and excited about an organization,” said another past convention attendee. “I am stoked to meet with my alumnae board to put some of these ideas into motion.”

REFRESH
No matter if you’re an active collegiate member or it’s been decades since your initiation, a trip to convention is the perfect way to refresh your love for our Fraternity. Surround yourself with the sweet sounds of Ritual recited by hundreds of sisters.
Did you know the decision to support domestic violence awareness was a convention vote? Be present for history as delegates determine elected leadership and amendments to our governing documents.
As one past attendee shared, “Alpha Chi Omega convention has reignited the fire in my heart to support and empower the young women of our sorority. Alpha Chi Omega is a journey I want to be on forever.”

CELEBRATE
When hundreds of sisters come together for convention, we have so much to celebrate! Be there for the announcement of Alpha Chi Omega’s most prestigious awards for chapters and individuals, and recognize the dedication of our 50-, 60- and 75-year members when they receive their milestone pins. At our 2024 National Convention, we’ll celebrate the way Alpha Chi Omega has led the race, and we’ll set the pace for the future of our beloved organization.
“Kudos to my 18-year-old self that said ‘yes’ to Alpha Chi on Bid Day! Little did she know how much this sorority would be such an integral part of shaping her life,” a past attendee said. “Now I go home with my star brighter and higher until we see each again and celebrate even more.”
Will you join the celebration in Indianapolis? Registration opens in February 2024. More details are at alphachiomega.org/convention.
