(Note, there are a number of 'industry' and professional conferences geared towards locksmithing and physical security professionals however many do not accept locksporters as attendees and as such, will not be listed. If there are any you are aware of, please feel free to get in touch. Additionally, many infosec conferences (BSides, DEF CON, etc) these days also have a lock picking village of some description, these will also not be listed as the focus is not on locksport or physical security)
