Every year, Young Liberals across Ontario come together for something special.

Summer Fling has brought together the next generation of Ontario's progressive leaders since 2002, growing from a campus gathering into the province's premier political conference for young Liberals. It's where the debates that shape our movement happen, where friendships are made, and where the next generation of Ontario's leaders find their footing.

Today, Summer Fling offers a full weekend of programming built for every kind of delegate. Keynote speakers bring the conversations our movement needs to have. Policy sessions put real issues on the table, with delegates shaping positions from the ground up. Panels bring together voices from across the party, from candidates and organizers to advocates and officials, for the honest exchanges that define OYL culture.

Workshops offer hands-on training in everything from campaigning to communications to community organizing, giving delegates tools they can use the moment they leave. And when the sessions wrap, the socials begin, because some of the most important conversations happen after hours, and Summer Fling has always known that.

 

This year, Summer Fling comes to Western University for the first time since 2005. London will host what promises to be our most memorable conference yet.

Whether it's your first conference or your third, Summer Fling is where Ontario's Young Liberals show up, speak up, and leave ready to lead.
