Registration is now open for the 2026 Vision FirstNet Users Summit, taking place September 14–16, 2026, at the South Point Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
The annual event brings together first responders, public safety leaders, government officials, and industry partners for three days of collaboration, education, and discussions focused on advancing mission-critical communications. The Summit is hosted by the Public Safety Broadband Technology Association (PSBTA).
“As FirstNet continues to evolve to meet the needs of public safety, the Summit offers an important opportunity for the public safety community to come together, share perspectives, and stay informed on the path forward,” said John Paul Jones, executive director at the PSBTA. “First responders and public safety professionals are encouraged to attend and be part of these critical conversations.”
This year’s Summit comes at a pivotal time for the public safety community with the looming sunset of FirstNet.
FirstNet has become an essential platform in emergency response, delivering reliable, prioritized connectivity when it matters most. Public safety plays a pivotal role in the evolution of its network and ecosystem.
The Summit is an opportunity to connect with local and federal leaders, specifically the FirstNet Authority, which is hosting a track at the event this year.
The Vision FirstNet Users Summit provides a unique forum for first responders to connect with peers from across the country, hear directly from key stakeholders, interact with industry partners, and engage in conversations that will help shape the future of public safety communications.
Attendees will have access to a dynamic educational program designed around real-world challenges, along with a robust exhibit hall featuring leading technology partners within the FirstNet ecosystem.
Registration is now open.
