• FALL CONVENTION 2024

  • We are excited to welcome all Jewish teens in Grades 8-12 to Fall Convention taking place November 8-10, 2024 in Markham, Ontario.

    New to Conventions? A convention is a weekend retreat that is planned and led by teens in BBYO. Conventions bring members together for a fun and meaningful weekend of programming, activities, Shabbat moments, and hanging out with friends!

    This is your chance to:

    • Make connections👫🏻 with Alephs and BBGs from across Toronto, Vaughan, Oakville, and Hamilton;
    • Vote on important legislation at Regional Business Meetings🔨;
    • Participate in convention favourites like Chapter Showcase🏆, Separates🥰, Oneg Shabbat celebrations🎉, Song Sessions🎶, and an energetic camp-style Shabbat🕯️🕯️; 
    • Celebrate 100 years of BBYO at a special Havdalah✨ alongside our BBYO Friends & Alumni Network (FAN).

    The cost is $399 and includes round-trip transportation🚌, quad occupancy hotel accommodations🛏️, and all meals🍽️, programming👾, entertainment🎭, staffing👨‍🦳, supplies✏️, and convention merch👕. Best of all, payments are fully refundable until October 30, 2024 for any reason.

    A note about pricing:

    We never want finances to be a barrier to a teen's participation. We recognize that high levels of participation in BBYO can often be expensive, and therefore designate scholarship funds that members can apply to receive to help them attend.

    Did you know:

    • We have more scholarship funding available than ever before!
    • You can request up to 25% of the cost without providing any income information or tax forms, making it even easier to apply for a scholarship!
    • All scholarship requests are completely confidential and all situations are considered!
    • Scholarships are awarded on a rolling basis, so the sooner you submit your request, the sooner you'll receive a response!

    To request scholarship assistance, please register for the convention and then complete the Scholarship Application within 48 hours of registering.
