The FREEDOM CON is for all men who carry deep convictions about patriotism, faith, family, and freedom, and want to stand and defend those things with honor.

The Gorge Amphitheatre (https://www.gorgeamphitheatre.com/visit#get-here)is the premier outdoor venue of the West Coast. You'll find it at 754 Silica Rd NW, Quincy, WA 98848.

Wenatchee (EAT) is a 45 minute drive; Seattle (SEA) and Spokane (GEG) are both about 2 hours away.

Attendees have two options: 1) Camp at The Gorge, or 2) stay at nearby hotels. See “Accommodations"(https://www.freedomconference2026.com/lodging) on the website.

We love wives and daughters....aaaand this is a men's conference. For dudes. For all the ladies in the house, keep a look out for resources coming from Pastor Josh's wife, as well as links to live-stream the main sessions of the weekend!

We would love for you to bring your sons! And we acknowledge that a 6 year old might struggle to hang. We recommend 10 years old and up, but we'll leave it to each dad's discretion. (Dads, keep in mind: The Gorge Amphitheatre is all outside. It will be an epic weekend in the great outdoors enjoying a beautiful Washington summer, but those warm days can get long for a little dude. 100% your call!)

Gates will open 2hrs before the event (4:00pm Friday, 8:00am Saturday).

VANTAGE BRIDGE If you're coming from the west side of Washington, the Vantage Bridge may have heavy traffic delays due to WSDOT construction. Plan accordingly. Delays of up to 4 hours are possible.
