Prepare to Get Radical at VMX 2023

The NAVC long ago earned its reputation for blending world-class continuing education and professional development with a fun and inspiring atmosphere. But even VMX regulars have never encountered anything like the upcoming conference. The NAVC kicked off VMX’s 40th anniversary celebration by offering throwback pricing of $125 for early registrations through October 31, but will continue with 40% off standard registration fees and nonstop ’80s-themed entertainment and memorabilia around every corner. You won’t want to miss VMX 2023, held January 14-18 in Orlando, Florida.

You’ll have the ability to choose from more than 1200 RACE-approved CE credits and a wide variety of sessions led by leading experts in the field, but make sure to carve out some time for all of the fun events that are scheduled throughout the conference. This year’s special anniversary celebration will feature more entertainment than ever before.

• Saturday’s slate includes a morning VMX kickoff event with special guest Kevin Bacon, presented by Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health, a Veterinary Nurse/Technician Happy Hour, alumni receptions, and a special ’80s-themed VMX 40th Anniversary Celebration.
• Sunday, after hours, you’ll be able to experience Expo Night’s games, bites, and beverages before heading over to the Sunday Spectacular event with Jay Shetty, presented by Hill’s Pet Nutrition.
• Monday is packed from start to finish with the glow-themed 5K Fun(d) Run benefit in the morning and a VMX Exclusive: Lady A Concert Event in the evening, sponsored by Merck Animal Health.
• Last but not least, Tuesday will feature VMX Around the World: A Celebration of Cultural Diversity.

You’ll find more fun throughout the event, including a classic arcade, nostalgic photo ops, a roller-skating rink, and ’80s impersonators. And don’t forget about the VMX classics: the Cat Nap Café, Puppy Playground, and the chance to win all kinds of prizes through the Expo Hall Passport program and scavenger hunts.
