Join us at Hilton Boston Park Plaza and Fenway Park

The signature event of the Aspen Institute Sports and Society Program, the Project Play Summit is the nation’s premier gathering of leaders building healthy children through sports. The 700+ attendees come from across the country and internationally to discover new insights, ideas and opportunities to get and keep kids in the game.

Join us May 5-6 in Boston — the City of Champions — for the 2026 Project Play Summit, where we’ll dive into how we can be champions for our kids, families and communities. We will spend two days at the historic Hilton Boston Park Plaza in the heart of downtown Boston learning, building community and exploring solutions that can get and keep more kids playing sports. And don't miss our Opening Night Reception at iconic Fenway Park!

The Summit sells out every year so don't miss your chance to be in the room. Register today to take advantage of early bird pricing, available until January 12.
