2027 RI conference moved to Barcelona.
Barcelona, Spain, will host the Rotary International Convention on 26-30 June 2027 at the
Fira de Barcelona. This decision by the RI Board enables the city to bring the Rotary
community together two years sooner than was recently announced in March.
The 2027 convention was originally scheduled to take place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
(UAE). Rotary postponed it to a later year due to the current security situation in the Gulf
region and uncertainties around international travel, which made it difficult to organize the
event.
Barcelona, a premier convention destination, has previously hosted the event in 2002 and
offers convenient access to Rotary members worldwide.
"We are deeply grateful to the city's [Barcelona] organizers and the local Rotary members
for their flexibility in working with us on an accelerated timeline," says Rotary International
President Francesco Arezzo.
