Every year, thousands of VFW and Auxiliary delegates gather to represent the organization’s total membership of more than 1.5 million at the weeklong VFW National Convention. While there, our mission is to approve new national priorities to guide our organization as we lobby Congress on issues important to the nation’s veterans, service members and their families. Convention delegates also elect new leadership, as well as prominent individuals and organizations for their support of veterans and military personnel. Scheduled for July 22-27, 2023, the 124th VFW National Convention will be held in Phoenix, Arizona!
