Socializing at the Summit

We know you love to start your day with a run or walk. You will have three opportunities to pace your industry peers in a early morning run or walk, and demo new products from the sponsors. The daily run route will be about 3 miles and the walk route will be about 2 miles.

Put your party hats on! The Summit kicks off with an opening night cocktail hour, followed by a welcome from the RIA and our Hall of Fame presentation—setting the tone for a few days built around connection. Tuesday evening brings another cocktail hour before everyone heads out for dinners around the city, and we wrap things up Wednesday night at the RIA Industry Party, sponsored by Brooks

We'll wrap up the Summit with a fun social event. This year’s RIA Industry Party—sponsored by Brooks—heads to The Painted Pickle from 8:30–11:00 PM. Enjoy an evening that’s all about letting loose after a packed few days. 

Think post-prom vibes…with a twist. Dress to impress, or don’t—because you’ll have pickleball, games, and plenty of ways to stay moving and keep things fun. 

We’ll have signature drinks flowing, easy transportation running to and from the Westin, and one of the highlights of the week: our Best in Show awards, where top products in the channel get recognized based on votes from you and your fellow retailers. 

It’s equal parts celebration, connection, and just a good time—don’t miss it.
