    Vendors Welcome

    Please join us at the 2026 KACM Conference! The conference will be Thursday September 24 - Friday September 25 in Hutchinson at the Hilton Garden Inn & Convention Center located at 1715 North Waldron St, Hutchinson, Ks 67502.

When registering, please indicate your attendance and any guest attendance at meals and the social event.

    An important component of the conference is the exhibition by companies that offer technology and products that enable municipal agencies to be more responsive to the public, work more efficiently, and improve municipal court operations. Booth spaces will be accessible to attendees, and we work diligently to facilitate as much interaction with attendees as possible. This makes KACM conferences an asset to participating exhibitors.
