About this Event
Welcome to Finance Fair '26
Presented by Gibson Financial Planning, Finance Fair ’26 is a financial empowerment and entrepreneurial resource experience designed to bring financial knowledge and financial resources together under one roof.
Think of it as a career fair for your financial life and your business.
Instead of leaving with another notebook full of ideas and nowhere to go next, attendees will have the opportunity to learn directly from experts—and then connect with professionals who can help turn those ideas into action.
Whether you are building a business, strengthening your personal finances, leading a nonprofit, preparing for your next stage of growth, or simply trying to make smarter financial decisions, Finance Fair ’26 was designed to help you move forward.

FOUR HOURS. FOUR FLOORS. MULTIPLE RESOURCES.
One of the biggest barriers to financial progress is fragmentation.
Your banker is in one place.
Your accountant is somewhere else.
You still need an attorney.
You have questions about business credit.
You are unsure where to begin with investing.
You have never created an estate plan.
You are searching for funding.
And everyone seems to speak a different financial language.
Finance Fair ’26 is designed to shorten that distance.
For one day, we are bringing knowledge, professionals, institutions, and resources together so attendees can ask better questions, make stronger connections, and identify their next financial move.
