Youth Exchange Preconvention and Banquet
Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center (TaiNEX)
After several decades and countless connections made, the Rotary Youth Exchange Preconvention is evolving!
Beginning with the 2026 Rotary International Convention in Taipei, the Preconvention will take on a new format—a one-day event focused on celebration and networking. This new event offers a more dynamic and accessible experience for current and prospective Youth Exchange leaders, participants, and alumni.
