FLORIDA LOTTERY HOSTS 2026 NASPL ANNUAL CONFERENCE IN ORLANDO

ORLANDO, Fla. – The Florida Lottery welcomed lottery leaders and industry professionals from across the country to the Sunshine State for the 2026 National Association of State and Provincial Lotteries (NASPL) Annual Conference, “Good Fun Under the Sun,” bringing the nation’s lotteries together to exchange ideas, share best practices, and explore the industry's future. The conference also welcomed Governor Ron DeSantis, who addressed lottery leaders and industry professionals during the event.

Each year, the NASPL Annual Conference moves to a different lottery jurisdiction, allowing host lotteries to showcase their state. The Florida Lottery hosted members representing 53 lottery organizations across North America with educational sessions that focused on technology, responsible gaming, innovation, customer experience, and other topics shaping the lottery industry. NASPL members were also able to enjoy all the Sunshine State has to offer as destination for business and visitors.

“The Florida Lottery was proud to welcome our colleagues from lotteries across North America to our great state,” said Florida Lottery Secretary Reginald D. Dixon. “This conference is an opportunity to learn from one another, share ideas, and continue looking for innovative ways to serve our players, retailers, and the people of Florida. We are grateful to NASPL for the opportunity to showcase Florida and to be part of these important conversations.”

“Lotteries are the most played and impactful gaming activities generating funds for public causes, and the strength of the industry comes from the people behind it and our willingness to share what works, learn from one another and continue to improve,” said NASPL President Brian Rockey. “Bringing our industry together in Orlando gave us an opportunity to exchange ideas, strengthen connections, and showcase the innovation across our industry, while experiencing the energy and hospitality the Florida Lottery team brought to this year’s conference.”

The Florida Lottery thanks NASPL, conference participants, speakers, sponsors, and the many partners and employees who helped make the 2026 NASPL Annual Conference a success.
