Before you know it, you will be shoulder-to-shoulder with thousands of other like-minded ministry leaders laughing, singing, learning (and probably Cupid-Shuffle-ing.) Get ready for awkward icebreakers, goldfish crackers, and ALLLL the jokes about teenage angst. Just kidding. You’re coming because you want to be intentional about investing in the lives of kids and teenagers. You’re coming because you care about helping the next generation discover a future filled with hope. And you’re here because you know that the best way to do that is to be . . . well . . . here for it. 

Here is everything you need to prepare for the experience.

You’re likely aware of the dates by now, but, since this is a first for us, we are being extra diligent to ensure everyone knows we’re starting on a Tuesday this year! Orange Conference is giving you a new midweek experience to help you get back in time to prep for Sunday. So mark your calendars for Tuesday, April 23rd, through Thursday, April 25th. 

Be sure to check out the full conference schedule here or in the Orange Experiences app. Don’t forget that you can even filter by the sessions you’re registered for for a more customized glance at your week.

This short quiz will help you determine which workshop track is right for you based on what matters most to you today.

Once you save your seats, submit any questions you have for your speaker using the pre-workshop survey attached to each session in the OC app.

This video library will be updated frequently to guide you through all workshop registration and ticket-related processes.

As you prepare to join us, it will be vital for you to familiarize yourself with Gas South Arena’s event security and safety policies. New and most importantly, this year, they are enforcing the following:

• Allowed - CLEAR BAGS ONLY (12” x12” x 6”), small clutches, diaper bags, and medically necessary items.

• Not Allowed - No backpacks, briefcases, purses, or drawstrings larger than 12″ x 12″ x 6″ will be permitted. 

• The safest and fastest way to enter the venue is not to bring a bag at all.

• For our event only, the arena has approved electronic devices larger than a cell phone (like laptops), but they must be able to fit into your clear bag.

• View all arena policies here.
