Conferences & Events

2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the WateReuse Symposium! In 1985, water professionals first convened in San Diego to discuss emerging water reuse technologies and strategies. Today, water reuse drives prosperity, sustainability, and public health for communities worldwide. In Tampa, Florida, March 16-19, 2025 we will reunite to turn the tide toward the next 40 years of water reuse.

The Annual WateReuse Symposium is the premier conference on water recycling — attracting water professionals and water reuse practitioners globally for knowledge-sharing, networking, and collaboration. The Symposium is the most comprehensive water recycling learning opportunity available, covering policy, technology, operations, and communications for applications that range from irrigation and potable reuse to onsite and industrial systems. This one stop event also includes networking events, six meals, coffee and snack breaks, and interactive workshops – all included in the price of Symposium registration!
