FFI FlyFest 2026

The 2026 event brings education and community together under one roof at the Redding Civic Auditorium. A full schedule of presentations, fly tying and casting demonstrations, and a vibrant consumer trade show form the core of the weekend, with the trade show positioned at the center of the action. Everything flows through a shared space, creating natural opportunities for conversation, learning, and connection throughout the event.

Attendees can expect meaningful content delivered by respected voices in fly fishing, along with plenty of time built in for fishing, food, fellowship, and fun. All core programming is included with one straightforward registration fee, making FlyFest accessible and easy to plan.

For those who want to go deeper, FlyFest also offers optional small-group seminars designed for up-close learning and thoughtful discussion. The weekend concludes with a community dinner and fundraising auction which is another meaningful opportunity to connect, celebrate the fly-fishing community, and support the mission and conservation work of Fly Fishers International.
