District Conference is an annual event, held in October and is hosted by the District Governor.
This year President Alan will be leading a party of Rotarians and partners to the conference
The event starts on Friday afternoon through to Sunday late morning and is open to all Rotarians and their wives/husbands/partners.The location of the Conference is chosen by the District Governor and due to the large number of people attending, tends to be in conference centres or large hotels with large conference facilities.
The programme varies each year, but generally includes:
- Golf tournament
- Excursions
- Guest speakers (Rotarians and celebrities)
- Gala Dinner and other entertainment
- House of Friendship
Delegates can choose to attend individual days or the whole weekend and Rotary Clubs tend to organise themselves into groups for booking accommodation and socialising.
The emphasis of the weekend is to inform, have fun and meet other Rotarians in our District. District 1120 Conference has the enviable reputation of being one of the largest and best organised of all the District Conferences in the UK.
