Step right up to the perfect blend of serious business growth and restorative belly laughs: FunFerence 2024.
From October 17-19, 2024, we're transforming Denver's magnificent Halcyon Hotel into a hub of connection, camaraderie, and creativity, exclusively for members of The Dames.
Register Now! Is this your moment?
FunFerence is a call to arms (or better yet, hugs and high-fives) for every Dame driven by the core desires to:
- Elevate her business or career to the next level through a flurry of actionable insights and inspiration
- Cultivate connections that transcend the transactional in an environment that feels like home (but better)
- Embrace and frankly heal from the entrepreneurial journey with laughter, joy, and a dash of Dames’ flair.
The Magic of FunFerence, Explained...
Elevate, Celebrate, Repeat
Between our VIP growth accelerator on day one and the main lineup of carefully curated workshops and panels that encompass day two, you’ll walk away from this event with strategies, reframes, actionable roadmaps, and momentum.
Past attendees will tell you they took pages and pages of notes and were never once bored. (There’s a reason we don’t call it a conference.)
FunFerence is where your journey accelerates joyfully.
Deep Connections that Count (and Feel Like Family!)
Far beyond the business card, you’ll find the heart of The Dames FunFerence - connections that resonate on a soul level. Previous years’ events saw countless collaborations, referrals, and honest-to-goodness friendships (among introverts and extroverts alike!). And this year, we’ve built in even more opportunities to meet, mingle, and mastermind.
FunFerence is where your network expands, not just with contacts but with companions.
Escape your Day-to-Day Duties
It can be challenging to walk away from your business for multiple days. That’s why we create the agenda for your “figure-it-all-out-fest” to be as transformational and pleasurable as possible.
From our lively group dinners to our cozy small group brainstorming sessions, FunFerence is designed to refuel you.
FunFerence is where you’ll slow down, speed up, or spin out something new as needed.
FunFerence is yours to shape and savor.
If you’re growth-minded and hungry for new skills…
Join us for The VIP Mastermind Experience, featuring mastermind-workshop-style sessions tailored to your revenue, company size, or leadership position. You’ll receive insights and support specific to your professional growth journey and goals. (Facilitators and other details will be announced as they are finalized!)
You’ll love our “Better Together” dinner party, which is equal parts enlightening and uproarious (and yet somehow introvert-friendly). For the remainder of FunFerence, expert Dames will keep your brainstorming on point between bursts of connection.
We took your feedback to heart and have created even more opportunities for 1:1 and small group time.
Even if you just really want to get out of your office…
Did we mention The Halcyon has a gorgeous, heated rooftop pool? A lovely cocktail menu? Extraordinary restaurants on the first floor and around the block? A front desk that will make fancy coffee drinks for you? Yeah. It’s our favorite escape for a reason.
If you’re ready to strut into your next level with clarity, strategy, and sisterly support - we wholeheartedly invite you to join us.

You'll be learning from facilitators running companies above the $7-figure mark.
You'll choose sessions ranging from Operations, Sales & Marketing, Accounting & Finance, and Human Resources and mastermind in small groups at your level ($500K, $1M, Business Leader, etc.).
