Join us May 4–7, 2027, at the Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport as we raise the bar for senior living hospitality.
Experience Hospitality Differently
Join us May 4–7, 2027, at the Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Expo as we raise the bar for senior living dining and hospitality.
Get ready for an unforgettable SYNERGY 2027 in Louisville, Kentucky, where hospitality, culinary innovation, leadership, and meaningful connections come together.
Hosted by the Senior Dining Association, SYNERGY is more than an annual conference. It's an opportunity for senior living dining and hospitality professionals to step away from their daily routines, exchange ideas with industry peers, discover new solutions, and return to their communities inspired to make a difference.
This year, we're bringing the SYNERGY experience to the heart of Kentucky, combining engaging education, interactive networking, an exciting industry expo, and a special Bourbon Trail Learning Experience. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore Louisville's rich hospitality traditions and discover how storytelling, craftsmanship, service excellence, and memorable guest experiences can inspire new approaches to senior living hospitality.
From thought-provoking discussions and hands-on learning to culinary experiences and connections that extend beyond the conference, SYNERGY 2027 is designed to bring people together, challenge traditional thinking, and create opportunities for professional and personal growth.
Whether you're a dining director, executive chef, corporate leader, hospitality professional, or industry partner, SYNERGY offers an experience you won't want to miss.
