The 19th International Conference on Gambling & Risk Taking will convene on May 26-29, 2026 at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. Also referred to as the Eadington Conference because it was founded by the late Dr. Bill Eadington in 1974. Eadington was the founding academic in gaming research and host this first-of-its-kind gathering, which has reconvened every three years.
