I had the opportunity to attend in person last year (in Salt Lake City, Utah) and it was incredible! I felt like I was at Disney World for genealogists!
Not only did I get to attend incredible educational sessions, but I was surrounded by THOUSANDS of people who love family history just as much as I do! I met some of the leading professionals in the genealogy community and learned so much.
And, the conference was held at the Salt Palace Convention Center, which is within walking distance of the massive FamilySearch Library. In between sessions, I was able to explore the library and work on my research.
Are we related?
One of the cool features of RootsTech is their “Relatives at RootsTech” tool, which helps you discover potential cousins who are also attending the event!

Nope, not too close... we're 11th cousins, but that WAS fun.
