International convention is the biggest event of the CKI year! Traditionally held in mid-June or early July, international convention is a time for members from all over the world to gather and discuss the business of the organization. Members elect the President, Vice President, Trustee-at-Large and all subregion trustees. Members also vote on amendments to the Bylaws of the organization. Of course, it's not all business. International convention is a time to meet members from around the world and exchange ideas, form lasting friendships and make wonderful memories!

Everything’s bigger in the Lonestar State — including CKI! Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the 2026 Circle K International Convention, taking place July 1–3, 2026, at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, Texas, U.S.!

Participate in engaging workshops and hear from inspiring speakers who will motivate you to take your leadership skills to the next level. Showcase your club and district projects, forge lifelong friendship and make your voice heard by helping elect next year’s CKI leaders and voting on important amendments.
It’s Lonestar Leadership at its finest — and we’re not riding solo. This year there are two conventions in one: As members of the Kiwanis family, Key Club and CKI will be together for part of their conventions. In true Texas fashion, this town is big enough for the both of us.
Beyond the convention, Dallas is full of adventure! Explore the vibrant arts scene, enjoy delicious Texas cuisine or visit local landmarks like the Dallas Arboretum, Klyde Warren Park or the Perot Museum of Nature and Science. And don’t forget that the Hilton Anatole itself is a destination, featuring its own water park, candy shop and the largest art collection of any hotel in the country.
