American
Democracy Summit 2025

Phoenix, AZ | MAY 14-16, 2025

American Democracy Summit is the premier nonpartisan pro-democracy event of the year. This isn’t your typical conference—it’s fast-paced, immersive, and built for this moment in America’s political crisis.

At ADS, you’ll connect with inspiring speakers, dynamic trainers, cultural influencers, and A-list entertainers while gaining tools and training to rise to the challenge and achieve real victories for democracy. It’s high-energy, hands-on, and all about coming together to meet the urgency of now with bold ideas and unstoppable momentum.

The Summit dives deep into the biggest questions facing our democracy today—equipping you to take action where it matters most. Here’s just a glimpse of what we’ll explore:

  • Confronting our constitutional crisis
  • How we enforce the rule of law
  • What we can learn from student organizing
  • Crossing the partisan divide
  • Engaging women in civic life
  • Election reform
  • Countering election sabotage
  • Standing up to authoritarianism
  • …and much more!
