"Local Officials are where the rubber meets the road. We know the problems, the priorities, and how to get things done. The ability to make a difference in an important and immediate way exists more here than at any other level of government.” - League President & Alpine Mayor Paul Tomasko
Looking at 2025
For 110 years, the Annual NJ League Conference has provided a gathering place for local officials and professionals to connect, network, and learn. Once again, we anticipate over 16,000 attendees and 700 exhibiting companies to attend the nation’s largest municipal conference.
In November 2025, just as the nation begins to commemorate the 250th anniversary of America, the Annual Conference celebrates our rich and diverse history as a group, a state, and a nation. Local officials can use those
years of knowledge to move forward addressing community needs and solving future problems.
“For more than a century, the League has brought the local governments from around the state together for cooperation, communication, and community. This November we once again have the opportunity to draw a diverse network of officials, educators, and service providers to 3 days of
learning in Atlantic City. Together, we will continue mapping a world of municipal achievement and success.” - NJLM Executive Director Michael Cerra.
The largest municipal gathering in the nation.
The NJLM Annual Conference is the largest municipal conference in the country and a critical mainstay in the portfolio of services provided by the League. With 16,000 attendees and 1,100 exhibit booths, it provides the raw information that municipal leaders take back to find the way forward for their communities. It also serves the critical role of providing professional development for licensed municipal professionals and exposure to new products and ideas. This event occurs annually the week before Thanksgiving at the Atlantic City Convention Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
