Inaugural event for glass fabricators to take place June 14-17 in Chicago

The National Glass Association (NGA) has announced new dates for its inaugural NGA Glass Fabricator Conference (GFAB™), which will now be held June 14-17, 2026, at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Chicago. Due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict within the industry calendar, we've moved the conference from April to June to ensure maximum attendance and participation from our community. 

GFAB will be the must-attend industry event for glass fabricators and their supplier partners, providing can’t-miss programming and networking, including: 

  • Executive content for senior leaders
  • NGA Glass Conference track including committee meetings, advocacy initiatives, and annual Fun Run
  • The GFAB Workshop on Glass Tempering Quality Control at nearby Skyline Design
  • Unparalleled networking with fabrication machinery, software and supplier partners 

Registration will open in Spring 2026. Visit GFAB on glass.org for further details about early-bird rates and programming highlights as they become available. 

We look forward to bringing the glass fabrication community together in Chicago this June.
