America’s largest annu­al gath­er­ing of pro­gres­sives will be head­ing to Den­ver, Col­orado next year for its fif­teenth meet­ing, Net­roots Board Chair Arshad Hasan announced a short time ago dur­ing the Net­roots Nation 2019 open­ing keynote.

Net­roots Nation 2020 will be in Denver

NN20 will take place at the Col­orado Con­ven­tion Cen­ter, which is locat­ed in the city’s down­town core. The Con­ven­tion Cen­ter pre­vi­ous­ly host­ed the day­time activ­i­ties of the 2008 Demo­c­ra­t­ic Nation­al Con­ven­tion in July of 2008 (evening gen­er­al pro­grams were held at the Pep­si Cen­ter and Invesco Field).

“Opened in 1990, with more than one hun­dred pro­fes­sion­al meet­ing plan­ners work­ing togeth­er with archi­tects to design every aspect of the build­ing, the result was sim­ple; a sen­si­ble, state-of-the-art facil­i­ty with easy traf­fic flow and every­thing you need in a stun­ning­ly beau­ti­ful build­ing in the heart of down­town Den­ver,” the facil­i­ty’s web­site says on its overview page.

“Expand­ed in 2005, well-known as one of the most prac­ti­cal and ‘user friend­ly’ meet­ing facil­i­ties, the Col­orado Con­ven­tion Cen­ter is now home to over 230+ events annu­al­ly. The Col­orado Con­ven­tion Cen­ter is locat­ed with­in easy walk­ing dis­tance of near­ly 10,000 hotel rooms, 300 restau­rants, 9 the­atres of the Den­ver Per­form­ing Arts Com­plex and a wide vari­ety of shop­ping and retail outlets.”

The con­ven­tion will return to August next year after being held in July this year (it is always in June, July, or August). The 2020 Demo­c­ra­t­ic Nation­al Con­ven­tion will have occurred sev­er­al weeks pri­or in Mil­wau­kee, while the 2020 Repub­li­can Nation­al Con­ven­tion will be held soon after in Charlotte.

Thurs­day, August 13th will be the open­ing day of the 2020 Net­roots Nation Con­ven­tion and Sat­ur­day, August 15th will be the clos­ing day.

The host hotel for next year will be the Hyatt Regency Den­ver at Col­orado Con­ven­tion Cen­ter, locat­ed at 650 15th Street.
