Where can one find primary event programs or speaker rosters for TPUSA conferences in 2023–2024?
This fact-check may be outdated. Consider refreshing it to get the most current information.
Executive summary
Primary, original event programs and speaker rosters for Turning Point USA (TPUSA) conferences in 2023–2024 are most reliably found on TPUSA’s own event and archive pages, affiliated sites like Turning Point Action for politically oriented events, and in contemporaneous external coverage such as event listings and encyclopedic summaries; specific examples include TPUSA’s event/agenda pages and TPAction’s People’s Convention pages [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Secondary sources (news articles, third‑party event sites, and TPUSA press materials) can fill gaps or corroborate names highlighted in summaries like Wikipedia’s AmericaFest 2023 speaker list [6] [7] [8].
1. TPUSA’s official event and agenda pages are the first stop
TPUSA publishes event listings and agendas on its website, which is the primary repository for current and near‑term conference programs and often carries agenda pages such as AmericaFest’s agenda and general events catalog where organizers post speaker lineups and session schedules [1] [2] [5]. Those official pages are the authoritative source for who was scheduled to speak and when, because TPUSA controls registration, scheduling, and public communications for its conferences [1] [5].
2. TPAction and affiliated sites host program details for action‑focused events
For events run by TPUSA’s political arm Turning Point Action, such as The People’s Convention in June 2024, the TPAction site includes event information and promised “dozens of the nation’s top leaders” with venue and date details—these pages typically include speaker rosters or are the place organizers link to ticketing and agendas [3] [4]. Consulting TPAction is essential when an event is branded under Turning Point Action rather than the TPUSA 501(c) umbrella [3] [4].
3. Event‑specific microsites and specialized program pages capture full schedules
Major TPUSA conferences like AmericaFest and the Student Action Summit commonly have dedicated agenda or microsite pages that publish detailed session schedules, keynote lists, and special events; TPUSA’s AmericaFest pages and related agenda postings are examples where users find the multi‑day program structure and lineups [2] [9]. When an agenda page is available it usually constitutes the closest thing to a “program” PDF or online schedule released by organizers [2] [9].
4. Press kits, archived PDFs and organizational media materials can provide consolidated rosters
TPUSA’s press kit and backend resources — for example a TPUSA press kit PDF found on the organization’s backend — are useful for reporters and event planners seeking consolidated speaker lists, bios, and event facts; such materials may be archived on TPUSA servers or distributed to credentialed media [8]. These documents sometimes survive longer than ephemeral event pages and can be cited as primary materials when available [8].
5. Wikipedia, third‑party event aggregators and local listings are useful corroboration but not primary
Encyclopedic entries and third‑party event sites (e.g., America Project’s AmericaFest 2023 listing) summarize speaker highlights—Wikipedia’s AmericaFest 2023 summary names keynotes like Glenn Beck, Roseanne Barr, Mike Lindell, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Tucker Carlson and Charlie Kirk—which is useful for verification but should be cross‑checked against TPUSA’s own agendas for the definitive roster [6] [7]. External pages can reflect what was publicly promoted at the time, but they occasionally omit panelists or late‑added sessions [6] [7].
6. For faith‑oriented and specialty summits, consult the specific affiliate pages
TPUSA Faith and other specialty arms maintain their own event pages—TPUSA Faith’s Nashville Pastors Summit page, for instance, documents the 2023 pastors gathering and is the primary place to find its speaker and program claims for that niche conference [10]. Similarly, summit pages for events like The Summit host mission statements and program descriptions though they may be lighter on full rosters unless the organization posts an agenda [11] [10].
7. Practical research tips and limitations in the record
To assemble a full 2023–2024 speaker roster, combine TPUSA/TPAction agenda and event pages, archived press kits, and contemporaneous external coverage [1] [3] [8] [6]; recognize that some smaller sessions or campus events may not have preserved public programs, and where a claim cannot be verified in the sources provided, this report does not assert either way [1] [5]. Be aware that organizational messaging and promotional priorities shape which speakers are emphasized publicly, an implicit agenda visible when official materials spotlight headline keynotes while partner or workshop speakers may be less visible [2] [9].
