SAFECON 2026 in the Quad Cities

Welcome to the Quad Cities! We’re proud to host SAFECON and to welcome youth aviation teams, families, and supporters from across the country. While you’re here testing your skills and building connections, we invite you to experience all that our riverfront region has to offer—from scenic trails and world-class museums to local dining, festivals, and a community that loves to cheer you on. The Quad Cities is more than just the backdrop for your competition—it’s a place to explore, connect, and make lasting memories.
