We're thrilled to announce that Netroots Nation 2011 will take place in Minneapolis, Minnesota June 16-19, 2011.

As Sen. Al Franken said in Las Vegas: "It's a little bit less glitzy and glamorous than Las Vegas, but it's also a little bit less hot. It's a place with great fishing, beautiful scenery and tons of energetic progressives ready to show Netroots Nation a good time."

Minneapolis Mayor RT Rybak welcomes Netroots Nation 2011:

In partnership with INMEX, the not-for-profit meeting planning company that assists us in selecting socially responsible convention destinations, we chose a city and venue that echoes our progressive values. The convention center touts a commitment to sustainability that includes a broad recycling program. The building gets about 15 percent of its electrical energy from renewable sources, and surplus food is collected and donated to local non-profits. For information about the convention center's green initiative, click here.

Plus, both the city and convention center have been recognized for a strong commitment to access. For more information on options including transportation options for travelers with disabilities, click here.
