HR Conferences in California (2026): Dates, Venues & Pricing
24 upcoming HR conferences in California, with dates, venues and pricing for 2026 & 2027.
California’s size means its HR events range from national tech summits to focused gatherings like the Responsive Conference in Oakland, which brings a future-of-work lens to culture, leadership, and how teams actually operate.
With some of the country’s most detailed employment regulations, California HR leaders get real value from sessions grounded in state law, whether they manage people in the Bay Area, Los Angeles, or the Central Valley. In-state events also mean tapping one of the deepest HR networks anywhere.
Below are the HR conferences and expos happening in California in 2026, with dates, venues, and pricing, updated as new events are announced.
September 2026 through July 2027.
