For over a century, Esperanto speakers across the United States have gathered annually for the Landaj Kongresoj (National Conventions), as well as for smaller, local events. These conventions provide a unique space to connect, collaborate, and celebrate our shared love for Esperanto and its ideals.
Landa Kongreso 2026
Every year Esperanto-USA organizes a national congress during the summer. This year, it will take place in Cleveland, Ohio and will have a special focus on the life of Lidia Zamenhof, who instructed Esperanto there. It will also be a historical congress as we celebrate 250 years of US independence.
Printempa Esperanto Renkontiĝo (PER)
The annual regional Spring Esperanto Gathering (PER) presents a rare opportunity for Esperantists to spend three days immersed in an all-Esperanto world. In a beautiful mountain setting in North Carolina, far from the cares and annoyances of everyday life, a friendly, welcoming, and collaborative environment awaits. A practical, informative, and thought-provoking program with a variety of activities will provide opportunities to sharpen and strengthen speaking, listening, and conversational skills. Games, hikes, community meals are part of the enjoyment. The event typically occurs in mid-April.
This event is full for this year.
