New Orleans
September 20, 2025 (8:30am – 4:30pm)
New Orleans beats to a rhythm all its own, where every corner tells a different story. This gathering invites folks from across the Gulf Coast—whether Baton Rouge, Mobile, or beyond—to come together, explore new ideas, and build meaningful connections with others who share the same curiosity and spirit.
XO Ruby New Orleans is a single-day, single-track conference designed to draw folks in from the city and the region. An approachable $100 ticket price coupled with no need for a hotel or airfare means you can connect with your community without breaking the bank.
