The Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) has formalized its 2025-2026 conference and regional events schedule[2], beginning with the FGIA 2025 Annual Conference[3] occurring February 17-20 in Orlando, Fla. Registration for this event opens in December.

“Member feedback guided the FGIA Board’s strategic planning to target a blend of upscale venues and more affordable city locations for our events. This approach allows us to deliver a high-value experience to complement our content-rich programming,” said Florica Vlad, FGIA events manager.
