Texas’ Largest Youth Conservative Event

ABOUT
The 2026 Texas Youth Summit will be held at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center. Featuring many of the nation's leading conservative voices, the Summit exists to identify, educate, and equip the next generation of leaders to advance the principles of fiscal responsibility, free markets, limited government, American exceptionalism, and the Judeo-Christian values upon which America was founded.
The Texas Youth Summit is open to attendees of all ages, with admission just $1 for youth and young adults ages 10–26 using promo code LONESTARYOUTH. We anticipate another sellout crowd this year, so attendees are encouraged to arrive early to allow sufficient time for security screening.
