Nice list Geno. There are also 3 Affilicon events this year in Isreal, Sweden and China you could add to the list.
Logan,
Thank you for mentioning the Affilicon ones. I have just added them to the list too.
Nice post. Thanks for the list. I saw it in Google blog search…
LinkShare Ltd. (UK) has just e-mailed me about their London Symposium in April. Added it to the list too.
Thanks Geno
Thank you for the heads up, Penny.
CJU (in September in Santa Barbara) has just been added to the list too.
Thanks for including Affiliate Convention in June Geno. Great List!
Aunesty,
While I personally do not believe there is a need for yet another U.S. affiliate conference (besides the semi-annual Affiliate Summits that have been gathering a great crowd for years), my goal was to put together an unbiased list.
This is a great list. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure. Glad you’ve found it of use, B.
I think if you include links to each event, it would really help.
Looking forward to meeting everyone in Denver at the Affiliate Convention in June!
Thanks for the list, Geno!
Thanks for this great list Geno. I was surprised to see that no one has made an online marketing event site and add a rating system, just like other rating site (ex.http://ratemyprofessors.com/).
Added linking (thanks for the request, Jeremy K.), and another LinkShare Symposium (Ayako, it’s gonna be in Tokyo!!)
Just a heads up: a4u expo Europe early-bird pricing closes tomorrow (midnight [GMT] Saturday). Full affiliate pass is going to go up in price from €179 to €279, while network/merchant/agency passes’ prices are going to increase from €279 to €379.
I’ve just heard from Commission Junction that the dates for this year’s CJU have been moved to 09/15-09/17. Updated this in the above-quoted list of affiliate marketing conferences.
I’d love you to do a fresh post comparing major affiliate networks. Pros/Cons from an outside source always a plus!
Isabella,
I have a post on the “major affiliate networks” at Compare North American Affiliate Networks Side-by-Side (posted on February 20, 2009).

Nice list Geno and for us “geeks” in this industry. Very nice.
Who is attending the CAC Amsterdam?
Sylvie,
Glad you’ve found this list of affiliate marketing conferences and conventions of help.
List updated with 10% off coupons for Affiliate Summit and A4U Expos.
List updated with a link to newly posted info on the June’s NYC LinkShare Symposium.
Just added eComXpo (a July 2009 affiliate marketing event) to the list. Register (it’s free!) to hear me speak. 😉
Great list thanks for putting it together!
My pleasure, Murray, and looking forward to seeing you at some of these.
Affiliate Summit and buy.at are hosting a Tax Talk & Crab Feast on Thursday, July 9 in downtown Baltimore 🙂
Okay, and it’s on the list now!
Added LeadsCon to the list.
Just learned about another affiliate marketing conference — the Budapest Affiliate Conference that’s coming up in September. Added it to the list too.
Thanks a lot for this list! Thanks to @drumminLogan for sending me here. Hey, nice to see you here @ayakobing! Small world.
Now, where can I find a list of trade shows not necessarily about affiliate marketing, but where people gather? (like Blog World, Ad:Tech, TED..etc)
Dave
Dave,
Good question.
I have just posted a list of the 2009 digital marketing conferences to attend between September-December.
Here’s the link: Internet Marketing Conferences – 2009.
Just added the ShareASale’s ThinkTank 2009 to the list too.
