Life Fest 2026 - Nashville TN - Liposarcoma

Life Fest 2026 in Nashville - Liposarcoma

Life Fest 2026 will be held in Nashville, TN from July 10th-12th.

Life Fest is a unique event where patients and caregivers come together for a weekend to interact with each other and the medical and scientific communities that serve them. Faced with a rare form of cancer, liposarcoma patients have a great need for information about this disease, particularly as the science evolves and our understanding reveals a complex set of subtypes of liposarcoma, each responding differently to available treatments.

Life Fest workshops provide patients with emerging medical information, and they come away with a deeper knowledge of the disease, treatments, and side effect management. They find hope in knowing the scientific community is working toward a cure, and hope is such a vital asset for survival.

Coming together with fellow patients from all walks of life from around the world is a meaningful and powerful experience. In addition to our traditional educational workshops, Life Fest 2026 will feature scientific presentations highlighting the newest research and the latest treatments.

Scholarships are available! Please submit your request through this form.
