2027 ILS Annual Convention

Lied Lodge at Arbor Day Farm
Nebraska City, Nebraska
April 29-May 1, 2027

Save the dates and plan to join us on Arbor Day weekend in Nebraska City, Nebraska. The 2027 ILS annual convention will showcase Nebraska’s largest public lilac collection and the nation’s second largest public lilac collection for total number of diverse cultivars. Overnight accommodations, meals, and educational seminars will be at the nature-inspired Lied Lodge, an Arbor Day Farm property.

Registration information, convention agenda, and a tentative lilac auction list will be available in the Fall 2026 issue of Lilacs and on 2027 ILS Convention webpage. Registration will include the traditional option and a new online option with full convention and single-day registration selections.

We look forward to welcoming ILS members, lilac enthusiasts, and friends to Nebraska in 2027!
