We’re also excited to announce the return of last year’s new additions — crafted to enhance your meeting experience! Look for more details on each of these offerings in the coming months.

Join us for the Opening Ceremony on Friday, March 27, at 5 p.m. featuring welcome remarks from AAD President Susan C. Taylor, MD, FAAD, speeches from the two AAD President-elect candidates, the presentation of the Gold Medal to Henry W. Lim, MD, FAAD, and a fireside chat between Dr. Taylor and our keynote speaker, John Legend.
Immediately following the Opening Ceremony is the Member Welcome Reception, where you’ll connect and celebrate with other AAD members. To make it extra special, the event will take place at Empower Field at Mile High, home of the Denver Broncos! Look for the option to purchase tickets during registration.
We will again offer on-site childcare during the AAD Annual Meeting to accommodate attendees with children ages six months to 12 years. Advanced registration is strongly encouraged. Learn more about childcare.
Last but not least, the puppies are back! The Canine Cuddle Zone, located in the Exhibit Hall, offers attendees the opportunity for puppy snuggles and tail-wagging joy! These dogs are adoptable, so we can’t guarantee you won’t return home with a plus-one.
