Who’s Ready to ROCK?
The Atlantic Insurance Brokers Convention is taking centre stage in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, October 7 & 8, 2026 — and this is one event brokers will not want to miss.
Over two packed days, you’ll gain practical insight from education sessions led by top sponsoring companies, discover new products and solutions on the tradeshow floor, and hear fresh perspectives during a featured Tech Panel on the trends reshaping the broker channel across Canada.
This is where business connections turn into real opportunities — where brokers can compare notes, build relationships, spark new ideas, and recharge with the people who understand the industry best. When the sessions wind down, the volume turns up with evenings featuring the return of Rally in the Alley on legendary George Street a President’s Dinner on the second night and hospitality suites at the JAG to end each day.
Choose the pass that fits your playlist: go all-in with Full Delegate registration for front-and-centre access to convention events, or build your own experience through our À La Carte event options.
Don’t miss your chance to be part of this event — register now, claim your spot, and join us where big ideas, bold connections, and the Atlantic insurance community come together in perfect rhythm.
