“Conclave” can refer to a few different things, and the date depends on which one you mean:

  • If you mean the Catholic papal conclave (to elect the new pope after Pope Francis’ death), that conclave was scheduled to begin on 7 May 2025 in the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican.
  • If you’re talking about Tau Kappa Epsilon’s fraternity Conclave 2026 , it is set for 30 July–2 August 2026 in New Orleans.
  • If you mean “The Last Conclave” radio/programming conference , that final event is planned for 15–17 September 2026 in Minneapolis.

If you tell me which conclave (pope/church, fraternity, radio conference, local scout/Order of the Arrow event, etc.) you’re asking about, I can narrow it to the specific dates you need.
