Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the 2026 IESO First Nations Energy Symposium is fast approaching. Presented by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), this important gathering brings together First Nation leaders, community members and energy partners from across Ontario for two days of dialogue, knowledge sharing and cultural celebration. 

Building on this year’s theme of A Decade of Leadership, Opportunity for Generations, the event will look beyond past achievements toward the long-term transformation still ahead. Through meaningful conversations and collaborative sessions, the Symposium will explore the evolving energy landscape and the role of Indigenous communities in driving and guiding our shared energy future.  

We invite you to mark your calendar and register for the Symposium.  

Due to venue capacity limitations and to ensure as many First Nation communities as possible can participate, each First Nation community may register up to two representatives. Communities may choose the representatives best suited to participate.

Event Venue: Chelsea Hotel, Toronto - 33 Gerrard Street West, Toronto, ON M5G 1Z4.
