About the Festival of Education

The USA Festival of Education is a unique professional development event that brings together a vibrant and diverse community of educators. Now in its third year, the Festival will take place on Saturday, October 4th, 2025, once again on the beautiful grounds of St. Andrew’s Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland—just outside Washington, D.C.

Following two successful years that welcomed hundreds of educators from across the United States and beyond, the Festival continues to grow as a flagship event for anyone working in education. It offers an inclusive and inspiring platform for professional learning, debate, and collaboration.

At the heart of the Festival is a belief that professional development should be engaging, energising, and fun. The event is far from a traditional conference—expect thought-provoking sessions, influential speakers, interactive experiences, and the opportunity to make meaningful connections.

With the guiding principle “Where those who inspire find their own inspiration,” the USA Festival of Education is designed to ignite fresh thinking, celebrate innovation, and support educators to thrive in their roles.

Join us this October for a day of learning, reflection, and inspiration.

Prof Daniel Willingham
I just went to my first conference that didn’t have any icebreakers or kumbaya circles. All we did was talked research and effective teaching. Weird, I know. @EducationFestUS, the best conference I’ve ever been to.
Zach Groshell
It was a powerful day. The Festival of Education is a gift.
