About Public Works Expo (PWX)
Hosted by the American Public Works Association, PWX is an event for public works and smart infrastructure, including waste management, fleet, water, and municipal technology. It is for municipal leaders and public sector professionals.
PWX 2027
PWX 2027, the American Public Works Association's annual Public Works Expo, takes place August 22–25, 2027 in Phoenix, Arizona. APWA has published the dates and city but has not yet named the venue; this page will add it once the association does.
What it is
PWX is APWA's yearly conference and exhibition for the public works community. It combines education sessions with an exhibit hall, and the 2026 event in Houston also included the National Equipment Roadeo, whose results APWA posts alongside the session schedule and photo gallery. APWA thanked its Texas Chapter for helping host 2026; the 2027 event moves to Phoenix.
Speaking at PWX 2027
APWA has opened a call for presentations for PWX 2027 in Phoenix, inviting public works professionals to submit session proposals. The details are on the association's 2027 call-for-presentations page.
