The Concrete Foundations Convention, better known as #CFACON, brings the cast-in-place concrete industry to Milwaukee, Wis., July 21–23, 2026. CFACON has served as the premier annual concrete foundations event where leaders from across North America come together to learn, connect and commit to both company and individual growth. CFACON26 features three dynamic days of education, exhibits, networking, awards and unforgettable experiences. 

Hosted at the Brookfield Conference Center, CFACON26 offers programming designed for both commercial and residential foundation contractors, designers, manufacturers and suppliers. The event kicks off Tuesday with meetings, the Residential Concrete Foundation Technician certification and a kick-off reception in the Exhibit Hall, setting the tone for collaboration and connection. 

Wednesday and Thursday feature a robust lineup of educational sessions tackling timely and relevant topics for today’s concrete professionals. Attendees can expect sessions and panel discussions focused on emerging technical trends, risk management and legal best practices, brand building and reputation management and strategies to strengthen and protect their businesses in an evolving marketplace. Networking remains a cornerstone of CFACON26, with an off-site guest social and a memorable Wednesday night social at the Harley-Davidson Museum. 

A highlight of CFACON26 is the Awards Luncheon Gala, where CFA proudly recognizes excellence across the industry. The 2026 Project of the Year Awards offer contractors the opportunity to showcase the craftsmanship that too often disappears once foundations are poured and structures rise. These awards shine a light on the technical mastery and creative vision that define the cast-in-place concrete industry. In addition, Professional Awards will once again honor the individuals and companies who go above and beyond to elevate poured wall construction and strengthen the industry as a whole. 

CFACON26 in Milwaukee promises to be a can’t miss event. Registration is now open for CFACON26 in Milwaukee, with limited exhibit space and sponsorship opportunities available. Whether you plan to attend, exhibit or sponsor, now is the time to secure your spot and take part in the conversations shaping the future of the cast-in-place concrete industry.
