Gather Conference

Gather Conference is dedicated to creating inspiring, educational, and affirming spaces for Latter-day Saint LGBTQ individuals, their families, and friends. Its primary mission is to foster a sense of belonging—to one another and to Jesus Christ. Now in its fourth year, Gather has become the largest community of identity-affirming and faith-affirming individuals seeking to deepen their connection to Christ while embracing the reality of their individual journeys.

The 2026 Gather Conference will be held at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo, Utah. The event takes place November 12–14, 2026. Registered attendees, including youth (ages 14+), are invited to an opening social on Thursday, November 12, at no extra cost; the social will be held at a location in the Provo area, with details emailed to attendees in advance.

The conference offers programs for adults, youth, and college students, with a special track called "Gather for Youth" for LGBTQ+ youth ages 14 and up. Registration is required. Early bird pricing is advertised as the lowest available. Ticket prices and full registration options are found on the registration form. Scholarships for registration are available, made possible by attendee donations, and college student pricing is subsidized. Volunteers are welcome.

Questions about registration or ticket prices can be directed to lynell@liftandlove.org. Additional program details and the schedule will be announced closer to the event date.
