We are delighted to welcome you to Sacramento, California for the 2027 AAES Annual Meeting, May 22-24. This year’s meeting centers around the theme “Built on Belonging”— affectionately known as BOB. The theme reflects our commitment to deepening professional relationships, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and building a stronger, more inclusive endocrine surgery community. The Annual Meeting will take place at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, located in downtown Sacramento. The venue’s convenient location provides easy access to the AAES HQ hotel, the Hyatt Regency, which is steps away from the California State Capitol Park.

We’ll kick off the meeting with a Welcome Reception on Friday, May 21 at a local venue in Sacramento. This event is open to all attendees—come reconnect with colleagues, meet new friends, and help us launch the meeting in style.

In keeping with our focus on connection and belonging, we will continue with shortened scientific presentations to allow for more meaningful discussion and interaction. The highly rated breakout sessions will also continue with immersive, expert-led content, designed to spark dialogue and collaboration among attendees. The 2027 Meeting will provide approximately 15.00 hours of CME and 6.00 hours of self-assessment credits.

Highlights for 2027 include:

  • A refreshed Opening Session allowing us to jump right in.
  • Open lunch time on Saturday with no educational sessions. Get out and explore Sacramento!
  • Podium and poster competition awards will be announced on Monday, May 24 ensuring all eligible presenters receive recognition.
  • A dynamic Poster Spotlight session showcasing top posters.
  • Expanded clinically oriented panels and educational sessions, shaped by member feedback.
  • Small group interactive breakout sessions offering deeper dives into specialized topics (small fee required).

Sponsors will be on-site to showcase cutting-edge technologies that are transforming endocrine surgery. These exhibits offer a great opportunity to connect with industry leaders and explore innovations that can enhance your practice.

The AAES Annual Meeting is dedicated to advancing the science and art of endocrine surgery through knowledge exchange, collaboration, and community. The 2027 meeting promises innovative programming, networking opportunities, and scholarly enrichment—all under the theme of "built on belonging."

We look forward to seeing you in Sacramento!
