The Lions Clubs International Convention
Lions from across the globe have gathered together annually since 1917 to celebrate the International Convention. For many Lions and their families, attending the convention has become a yearly tradition, synonymous with the excitement of visiting new places and experiencing other cultures. The convention offers an ideal setting for reuniting acquaintances and making new friends. Lions also learn about other club and district projects, participate in the parade and elections, attend seminars and make personal connections with international leaders and representatives from headquarters.
Why attend?
Only at the International Convention, can Lions from over 100 countries and geographical areas with different languages and backgrounds march side-by-side down the streets of the host city. Only at the International Convention, can Lions have a vote in the association’s future. And only at the International Convention can 18,000 members come together to celebrate the true meaning of Lionism.
